Community Breakfast is Done

Here is an update on the Newfound Challenge community service project. On February 21 we had our community breakfast at the ttcc. It went pretty well. Shawn and Andy cooked the omelets. Ronci and Ms. McKenny made the mix for them. Mike, James, and Ryan took the orders down to the kitchen. I was siting upstairs writing down orders. Then Mike, James, and Ryan brought the orders up to the people.
This event benefited me as well as the community in a number of ways. Well I got the joy of helping people out and the people in the community got a free breakfast. I also got to meet some really nice people. The people also got a place to talk to their friends. We only had like 10 people show up. But we all had a great time.

Community Breakfast Reflection

On February 21, 2008 Newfound Challenge put on a free community breakfast. We cooked eggs and omelets. We got muffins, bread, fruit, cakes, eggs, and vegetables from Hannaford in Plymouth. We did this event to feed people who actually need the food.

My role in this event was setting up the tables and taking orders from guests. I welcomed the guests as they came in.

I had a fun time and I learned a lot about new people and how they lived. This event helped me to get to know the community better. This made me give back to the community. It fed more people and saved food from getting thrown out.

Senior Lucheon Info

Heres an update on the Newfound Challenge Class' community service project. We went to a senior luncheon . We helped out by serving them and sitting down to talk with them. The food we served was corn chowder, tuna fish, and pasta for their lunch. They also had coffee, punch, and hot tea to drink.
One positive outcome was we helped serve them, and they wouldn't think us teenagers are bad kids . They probably would help us build a skate park because we helped them out, so, maybe they will help us back.
One thing that I learned was to help people out and just have fun. They love having a civilized conversation with you and they really like that.

Update On Project

Here's an update on the Newfound Challenge Class' community service project.
We the Newfound challenge kids volunteered to help at the older people lunch. We had a good time we served corn chowder tuna fish sandwiches and pasta salad and drinks. Just a hint, when an old lady yells at you (i don't want corn chowder) just walk away. All in all it was great time you should try it some time.
One good thing about the lunch is I got free food. The bad part was... I was not hungry. Another good outcome was we got to help out in the community. It is good to work in the community because people won't think we are punks.
I learned old lady's get mad if you give them corn chowder that they don't want. They may yell (i don't want corn chowder).

Update

Here Is update on the Newfound Challenge Class' Community
Service Project. I went to a senior luncheon to help out people by serving the seniors food and beverages. We served the seniors their favorite food, corn chowder and their favorite beverages, coffee and tea. I, “The Prototype Football Star” also sat down and had a conversation with them.
One positive outcome of our involvement is that we earned their respect. We earned it by helping them out by serving them lunch.
I learned a lot about these people as seniors. It was nice to know what they were like because I did not know much about seniors. One guy told me punishments these days are less painful than they used to be. I'm glad this experience was useful.
