Join us to celebrate the start of after-school programs at the Boys and Girls Club of Muncie, located at 1710 S. Madison St. The kids love to see the outpouring of support from our community as they start the new school year.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Get your hands dirty while having fun during this annual event that makes a huge impact on the South Central neighborhood. The association provides a light breakfast and lunch is served afterward. Gloves, safety vests, and trash pickers are also provided. You can choose the level of strenuousness of your activity, from picking up street litter or riding on the back of the trash truck to tackling trash in an abandoned lot. They would love for students, faculty, and staff to volunteer and\/or capture the experience through reporting, video, and photos. Clean-up runs from 7:45-11:45 a.m. at the South Central Community Garden (roughly 224 E. 7th St.).<\/li>\r\n
The library will provide the space and supplies for families and individuals to build scarecrows for the Scarecrow Festival. The library would like 2-4 volunteers to help during this creative, hay-filled event. Volunteer hours are from 3-6 p.m. at Maring-Hunt.<\/li>\r\n
The Muncie Public Library will hold its Third Annual Scarecrow Festival from 1-5 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 2, at the Maring-Hunt Library Gateway to Gardening Pavilions. The library is looking for 5-8 volunteers to help at various booths and with games for kids. They would also like a photographer to capture the event, and possibly a reporter to cover the event. So, please consider this as an opportunity for a class assignment or club activity.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nCCIM in the News<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
