If you have been involved in community service projects, which has been most rewarding and why? I am in the Communities Program which has a lot of community service projects. The one that has been the most rewarding was C.A.R.E. Days. C.A.R.E. Days is a field trip for every special education student in Oshkosh. It has carnival games, a track meet, a dunk tank, a petting zoo, and much more. My group and I raised over $1,000 for the carnival games. The students in my Adaptive PE class say this is their favorite day of the year so I was really glad I could help make it a great day.
