Make a Difference Day 2007

On Saturday, October 27 volunteers from ReUse completed a service project at the Veteran's Park ballfields in Wellston. A team of six AmeriCorps*VISTA volunteers, armed with paint brushes, revamped the dugout and announcers box. The project went very well, and we would like to participate in future projects that benefit the Wellston community.

AmeriCorps*VISTA Emily Camm, who organized this year's Make a Difference Day project, would like to thank the following people and organizations who made this day a success:
  • Scott Sturgill, Director of Parks and Recreation for the City of Wellston for his help in coordinating our project and providing the paint, rollers, and other materials necessary for this project
  • Domino's Pizza of Wellston, for donating lunch for our volunteers
Here are a few of the pictures we took of the action that day. To see more photos, you can check out ReUse Industries' MySpace profile.
