A senior in our neighborhood is looking for a student to shovel snow for her this winter. She has a small driveway, sidewalk and porch that will need to be shoveled when it snows. It will only take about 30 mins. If you need community service hours you can do it for free. If you prefer to earn some cash she will pay $10 per day of work. The location is Webb Avenue which is a few blocks from our school. For more information see Mrs. Sheldrake, our chaplain in room 2053.
