with an incredible willingness serve the community and the
eagerness to learn from the perience. My group in the seminar and

engage in during se ar and it is obvious that the kids have a great
time due to this en usiasm. Yes, I have to admit it, this is a surprise.
I thought that w all the responsibilities of being a Coordinator, I

Sculpture by Blome in
Art Lounge
Eric Blome, a figurative sculptor
and student at the U-M, will be
exhibiting both sculpture and
drawings in the Art Lounge on
the first floor of the Union.
These artworks will be on
display from today, April 23,
through May 11. Sponsored by

oareular b~asis, or for a one-time project. ror example, te e epart-
ment of Social Services needs someone to do childcare for a parenting
class on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month, from 1-2:30. Or,
you could volunteer for a one-time project such as helping build a
handicapped accessible playground at Eberwhite Elementary School.
Over 1000 volunteers are needed to work on this project between May
2-6.
For those of you who are graduating, going home, or going away to a
summer job, there are still ways to be helpful. Stop by the office and
look at our directory of volunteer clearing houses throughout the
country. There's probably something available right in the area where
you are going to be.
Whether you help here or there, you'll be surprised at how much you
can help AND how much you'll get out of it. If you are interested in
hearing more about these or any other volunteer opportunities, please
stop by the S.E.R.V.E. Office, 2211 Michigan Union, or call 936-2437.
