Did you know that Global Youth Service Day is the largest service event in the world and the only one that celebrates the 
amazing work young people are doing to improve communities? Get involved…take a look at all of the projects that will be going on that weekend: http://gysd.org/. In Fairfield, our tree planting weekend will be in full swing. Rounding up the community to work together on a meaningful project was an idea conceived of by students and will involve volunteers of all ages to get roughly 275 trees in the ground. We have received generous support from Trees Forever, Alliant Energy Hometown Rewards and the City of Fairfield/ISU Extension to make all of this happen.
