Verizon 5k (rescheduled)
What a success! Volunteers from PHHS SIA took some time to attend the Verizon 5k located at Morristown High School to be helping hands for the event. The group was split up and assigned tasks: the girls worked at the t-shirt tent while the guys went to unpack medals and water bottles. It was a hot and humid day, yet the volunteers worked so diligently. When the runners came back from their run, the students awarded them with medals and a congratulation for completing the run. Once all the runners left, the students remained to collect any trash scattered on the ground so as to return the parking lot to its original clean state. They even helped recycle empty water bottles! By that point, the sun had set and it was completely dark outside. Despite having to stay late, the volunteers felt accomplished. Thanks to their efforts, Mr. Daly, a teacher at PHHS, will donate a sum of $500 to PHHS Students in Action! Clearly, hard work is followed with rewards.
