May 2015: Green Up Cleveland

Caring Cubs volunteered on May 2nd with Green Up Cleveland, which is a new organization founded by Sharon Holbrook (one of Caring Cubs founding members).

After a brief introduction by both Caring Cubs and Green Up, Sharon Holbrook read the children a book about the environment and things they could do to help clean up the earth. Next the children created sandwich board signs for them to wear while on their neighborhood “Litter Patrol”. All of the children (and adults) were provided with gloves and garbage bags for their patrol. After 30 minutes circling the block, the children returned back to the center with a total of 4 huge trash bags of litter! Post clean up, all of the families were invited to stay for the pizza party hosted by Green Up for all of their volunteers and our families received goodie bags and coloring books!

Fun was had by all at this great Caring Cubs event!
