  7. Justin T. Hobdy Flag Football Tournament • It is a flag football tournament to raise money for a scholarship. All the teams pay an entry fee for the tournament and that money is put towards the scholarship. • It was an all day event. • We were there from 8am until 6pm.

  8. Wings for Wishes • We get restaurants from around town to donate chicken wings. • We sell tickets to students, faculty, and other Valdosta residents for $5. • Each person gets to try a wing from every restaurant and pick their favorite. • All the money we made goes to the Make a Wish Foundation.

  17. Reflection • Doing community service really has taught me a lot, especially Relay for Life and Christmas with the Kids. • It was so rewarding seeing the kids get their presents and see the survivors walk. • They were so appreciative for all we did for them.

  18. What I Learned…. • I learned that waking up at 6am isn't always a bad thing. • I learned wasting a whole Saturday doing community service isn't always a waste! • It is a good thing helping the unfortunate, it makes you feel better about yourself at the end of the day.

  19. Pros and Cons • Pros • Helping people • Seeing them smile • Makes you feel better about yourself • Its for a good cause • Looks good on a resume • Cons • Sometimes its hard work • It can be discouraging • Often there is something better you would like to be doing
