Love Turlock-Community Service

As a requirement for one of Ashlee's classes at school, she had to do a minimum of 10 hours of community service.  Ashlee's teacher was a bit of a stickler on what would and would not qualify as community service so it was bit of a struggle, but she was able to do it all.
Today, Ashlee and John (we would have all helped, but since Mikayla is in a cast, we could not) participated in a combined event through the community of Turlock and Mormon Helping Hands called Love Turlock.  They completed a 4 hour community service project at an elderly persons home, cleaning up their yard and removing debris.  Some of the volunteers commented on how hard of worker she is.  She did a great job, came home with some scrapes, but she got up early and went to help and serve in her community.
Some other things Ashlee did for community service were:
Make brownies for the homeless
Serve food at a homeless shelter
Visit the elderly
Attend Interact Meetings (a community service club on campus)
Read books to Kindergarten Students
Work
Help others with homework (tutoring)
