Hi all,
 
ASCSU Day of Service is Sunday, September 28th from 10:00am to 1:00pm at Spring Park (2100 Matthews St. Fort Collins, CO). Gloves and bags will be provided by the Environmental Affairs department, and we will have the opportunity to disperse across the spring creek trail and collect trash.

This is a great opportunity to serve your community and make an impact while team building with your colleagues and enjoying a morning outside! All branches and all ASCSU members of any capacity are invited to participate in this opportunity. Even if you are only able to attend partially, you are still encouraged to join. A map is attached to this email of where you should park if you choose to drive to this opportunity.
 
Please feel free to utilize this opportunity to not only spend a lovely morning with your ASCSU colleagues but also acquire service hours for other organizations you may be involved in.
 
Thank you for your commitment to serving your community!

 

Best,
