When children do not move and exercise, a variety of long-term problems arise. Obesity, lack of attention span during class, lack of ability to work as a team, lack of want to take risks. All research shows that without play, children grow up to be non-productive adults. We could not let our students be in this position, just because our playground was 12 years old, rotting, too small and as the kids say "too boring". We will ensure after this playground build that all of students are moving around during recess and after-school getting all of the benefits of PLAY!

With the help of my younger brother, we posted flyers all over our town on some tips to save energy. These tips came from the DoSomething top reasons of global warming and how to save energy. Here in my town, the majority of the kids either walk to school or are driven by a parent. This causes a bus to arrive and pick up only one or two kids. WASTE OF GAS!!! So, although global warming is a large issue, it has receded into the background. With these flyers we're hoping to remind everyone how to save energy and how to save some cash as well.
