Community Service

Last weekend I attended "Battle of the Banks". It was a fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Butler County. We bowled two games and had to raise $75.00 a person to participate. After doing some research on the organization I started thinking a lot about it and began to support their efforts. I think the BBBS is a great thing and I have thought about being a Big Sister. I have talked to a few people on the Board and I got an application. The only problem I have is that I do not know if I have enough time to give to a child. If I take on this responsibility I want to give my best effort. I plan to wait a few months and let things work themselves out. If I do not become a Big Sister, I will still volunteer the time I do have to the organization. I think that children need that mentor figure in their life and I think that without that, they could get in trouble.
