During this trivia I learned about some of the woman in history that have made an impact in our society. I learned facts about many woman in history such as Oprah being one of the richest woman or how Mae Jemison was the first African American woman in space. This was a very fun and interactive event which allowed me to spend time with other people and learned about history.
This event was very gratifying, my group and I were able to pick up around three bags full of trash and were able to clean up a good portion near the street. We also got a better understanding of just how much people litter. This was a really good experience and I hope to participate in more like it.
During this workshop I learned about different ways to organize alll the things I need to finish. I learned that we have make SMART goals and decide which things we must prioritize first and find arealistic way to organize all the things I need to complete in the week. I also learned that assignment trackers are a reat way to organize hich assignments need to be completed and when.
During the WOW mixer we learned about the different requirements, upcoming events/workshops, and advisors of WOW. I learned about how we need to meet with WOW advisors at least every month and attend some of the upcoming WOW workshops. It was a very informative session in which I learned about the different events that could benefit me later and people that I can reach out to if I need assistance in something specific like mental health struggles.
Community leader Brian Gonzales organized this event in which I and other volunteers went to the local park to pick up the trash in the surrounding areas. We also made sure to sort out all the cans that we found into a separate trash bag so they could be donated to the church for one of the activities that they offer. This work was somewhat tiring, especially with having to carry several bags filled with clothing that were found discarded around the area, but it was really great opportunity to experience.
During this event, I helped plant several trees that are native to the area that have been affected by non-native beetles. I and the rest of the volunteers dug several holes where we planted trees native to the area to grow in areas that were bare and with mostly dead trees. This was a wonderful experience and a great opportunity to help the environment.
