1. Pickup garbage at the park
Update: Complete! We spent an hour in the park picking up garbage and recycling. It didn't look like there was too much garbage at first, but it's a big park, and by the end of the hour, we'd filled 4 grocery bags full of garbage and recycling. Awesome!
2. Shovel the driveway for an old person
Update: Complete! We shoveled Steve and Rick's driveway, and I think there's going to be a few more opportunities to do it again!
3. Give cookies to Steve, Rick and Sharon and John
Update: Complete! Cookies were baked and dropped off yesterday. These are out neighbours. Both Steve and John are elderly men who live alone - Steve's wife Pauline recently passed away and he's been having a tough time with it
4. Give old clothes to people who can use them
Update: Complete! We collected a bunch of Abby and Robin's clothes and toys and gave them to Caitlin (John's granddaughter).
5. Buy some presents for kids that will go without them this Christmas
Update: Complete! We bought 3 presents at Costco (Papa matched that with 3 more presents and dropped them off at the fire station.
6. Make a card for Steve and Uncle Neil
Update: Complete! Abby made the picture for Steve and gave it to him, it read "I am sorry that Pauline died so I am bringing you cookies". Wow. Nana brought Uncle Neil a card on her last visit.
7. Give food to the foodbank
Update: Complete! We took the kids and Papa to Costco and let them pick out non-perishable food items (with some guidance!) and carted a van full of food (well, not quite full) over to the fire station. The kids got to take a close look and sit in the two fire trucks in the garage... they were very impressed!
8. Make a picture for your teacher
Update: Complete! Abby made a card for Mrs. Romeo and gave it to her.
9. Cook dinner for people.
