Columbus Marathon Volunteer

Hours: 5

I worked alongside some of my fellow DSWS members at a water station on Coffey Road and Lane. It was right around mile 17 of the race. We arrived early before the race began to set up the tables, lay out cups, and mix the gatorade. Once everything was prepared the runners began to come by. We handed out the water and gatorade to them and showed our support. A cool moment was that we got to see a DSWS Alumni go by.

DSWS Day of Service

Hours: 5

For the DSWS Day of Service due to our large numbers we split up between 3 separate locations, The Ohio Furniture Bank, The Columbus Dream Center, and Goodwill Columbus. I lead the group that went to Goodwill. We were at one of their retail stores on North High Street. While we were there we sorted and organized all of the clothing in the store. Due to our large numbers we were able to complete this task much faster than it typically would, helping the employees a lot.
