Big Event 2009

Incredible day with 1700 volunteers braving the cold, wind, and rain all for some selfless giving back to the incredible community we are luck enough to be a part of. My three job site I was in charge of all did incredible jobs! I was blessed not only with incredible owners of the sites we worked at, (Campus Church, Hardy's Children's day-care center, and the Veterans Brick Memorial task 2010) but also three incredible groups of volunteers. We finished the data base for the bricks in a record breaking hour and a half, had the Campus Church site's walls scrubbed, floors mopped and swept, and touch ups done in two hours, and accomplished the large task of re-mulching and cleaning the children's play ground area in four hours. The best part of being a part of this is the feeling you get when one of the owners starts crying tears of gratitude and another asks where the children can write thank you notes to because now they can actually play outside. The credit for this belongs entirely to Auburn SGA and specifically the Big Event Staff. Being in charge of these three sites was hard work but they were only three sites, and forty volunteers of of 1700 total. That is was Auburn is all about, and that is exactly why I love it.
