For our senior project we created a day for kids and families to come together and participated in activities that promote a healthy and active lifestyles. Kids could come, receive a passport, and do activities to earn miles (points) toward their passports. When the correct number of points was earned, the kids could get a stamp in their passports to whatever country they had reached. The money we raised was donated to Samaritan's Purse. Our project beneffitted families, children, the church, and countries around the world.
Throughout this project we learned many things. We learned how much stress can effect a friendship. It showed us that running an event by ourselves is difficult and challenging. The biggest blessing for us was seeing the 30 volunteers come and help us succeed; this kind of support is more than anyone could ask for. For us senior project turned out to be more of a life and attitude reality check. We were forced to look at ourselves and our ways of thinking; we were also forced to look at each other and our differences.
When giving advice to underclassmen we would say procede with caution when entering with a partner. If possible, avoid having a partner alltogether. Even if you think you work alike; you don't. Also you must be completely sold out and passionate about your project, or you will absolutely hate it. Lastly, Try to have a positive attitude.
