From November 23rd through November 27th, Western Key Club held a Thanksgiving Service Week, mainly for a great opportunity to complete service hours throughout the week of Thanksgiving break. Key Club students were given quick and easy tasks to complete in order to gain hours.

Personally, I enjoy these type of service events because not only are they enjoyable, but they take almost no effort, meaning anyone can do it, and in the end it’s such a great benefit.

For Monday, the day was called inviting the Guests, making it a fun and easy clean-up day. We had to record, or take pictures of our cleaning, (whatever are it is) and there was no max hours for this event.

Coming up for Tuesday, Preheating the Oven was a day of searching. We had to visit Ecosia.org, which is a searching site that plants trees as you search. We decided to give 0.5 hrs for every 45 searches. In total, I completed 90 searches throughout the whole day. Quite an easy task to complete. The following day was named Setting up the Table. For Wednesday, it was more of an exercise day. Charity Miles has been such an amazing service event, so we decided to use it once more for this week. We either had the choice of downloading the app, or using Atlas, to run/walk/hike. Depending on the time being spend on, will be the time that’s going for the service hours. Second to last comes Thursday, named Thanksgiving Day. As said, Thursday was Thanksgiving Day. For this day, we had to show off our day by simply sharing a picture. I decided to show a picture of our final food once prepared because that’s what took the longest. Finally, Friday was named Loving the Leftovers. For this day, we had to finish our week by recycling all recyclables, and showing off a picture of how much oneself recycled. I surprisingly didn’t have much to recycle. Final thoughts, this was definitely a fun opportunity to gain some service hours during our break from school. It was fun, and in the end it kept me busy for a few minutes. I hope to continue to participate on these events for future service hours.
