Global Citizenship & SAVE...

So I'm taking this Global Citizenship class this quarter. Really just reminds me of the things that I want to do & that I told myself I would do. I have a service-learning project that I need to do for this class. Oh, then write a paper about my reflections. Reminded me to re-connect with the SAVE people, make a more conscience effort to actually volunteer, to do my part to make a difference. In doing that I was looking around on their website, checking stuff out. I found that they're doing the usual walk (at Lake Harriet, August 25th) but that they're also doing a walk closer to my house (Wyoming, August 11th). Yay! So I registered for it & created a "team"...hoping to be able to talk some of my friends into walking with me. I think some of them will. Double yay!

Here's a link to my page.
