Its really wonderful for my kids to hear about continuing education, which is always wonderful to encourage. Whitney Walton, junior from Salt Lake City, helped with the project that made school supply kits. Walton said that its great for Westminster students to be active in service but it is also nice to see the Hawthorne students learn about the importance of service and education. Its teaching them how important education is, too and that not everybody gets it, which is something that I think we all forget, Walton said. I mean, I dont think I really understood that concept until I was much older. Charles Bailey, senior computer science major from Evanston, Wyoming, also worked to create projects with the students, f I think its great, Im having fun and I like seeing how the kids are reacting to these activities and seeing them get involved and making a positive impact on the community, Bailey said.

Saturday: 7:30 p.m. to midnight Oct. 30 and Nov. 1: 7:30 p.m.to Laughter filled the hallways, art work covered the classroom desks and a sense of community encompassed Hawthorne Elementary during the fourth annual Westminster Day of Service. Students from Westminster and Hawthorne paired up to work on multiple projects to help those in the Salt Lake community. These different service projects formed out of a partnership between Westminster and Hawthorne Elementary. This is our fourth year doing the day of service, said Julie Tille, Director of the Center for Civic Engagement and Student Service Administration. What it entails is the Westminster students coming to work collaboratively and hand-in-hawith the Hawthorne students to create different service projects in each classroom. These projects are then donated to our community organizations. Kathy Harvey, volunteer coordinator for Hawthorne Elementary, said that Westminster usually comes up with the service project ideas and then completes them with Hawthorne. There were about 10 different projects this year. Some of the projects include making food boxes for the Utah Food Bank, lap blankets and flower bouquets for the Sarah Daft Home, paper chains for the Tracey Aviary and 200 school supply kits for refugee students in Salt Lake This experience is beneficial for both the Westminster and Hawthorne students.
