Yesterday we went to Dearborn Elementary School for our Disney Day. Disneyland had a program this year, if you register and perform service with at an authorized event, you would receive a free ticket to go to Disneyland. It was only for the first 1 million people to register. We registered before the 1 million mark was met, but our service date wasn't until after the mark was met, so our date was set in stone, if we missed it, no ticket!
So we arrived bright and early to perform our service. We were at the school with at least 100 other people. It was amazing what we accomplished in 4 hours. We weeded and planted in a very large planter area, we swept the entire kindergarten yard, cleaned the tables and playground, and painted a shed. The time went quickly and before we knew it, they were announcing that it was time to clean up! For once, the kids didn't complain about doing the service and were excited and happy to pitch in and help. It was very rewarding to see what was done.
