Community Center Class: Making The World A Better Place (Tuesday Evening)

Today, everyone had been warned to show up wearing sturdy shoes for walking in, and clothes they didn't mind getting dirty, to meet at the portal.

"Today we're helping the environment, and heading over to Swallow Falls State Park," Yang enthused, once people arrived. "We're going to help them prep for winter by doing some trash pick-up and trail maintenance!"

"The United States has both a National Parks system, and a State Parks system. Basically, at one point, people decided 'hey, nature is important,' and took some serious steps to make sure it was preserved for everyone, and that not everything got paved over into cities."

"Today, we're at a park run by the state. With winter coming, it's especially important to get trash picked-up and thrown away, the seasonal bike rentals cleaned, maintained, and put away, and the landscaping get all raked and trimmed and prepped for the season."

"I have both disposable and gardening gloves available for everyone, as well as trash bags. The park rangers have gardening tools, tools for bike-fixing, and big bags of mulch to start doing trail repair if you really want a work-out. So let's go!"

Given the choices available, Stark opted for working in the flower beds.

Jon wasn't actually allergic to the great outdoors, but he also knew that the extra-exertion things...well, he probably wouldn't be doing anybody any favours by trying them. Walking, though, that he could definitely do.

So he'd be bundled up, walking the trails and picking up trash.
