The school is shut down for the day but the staff and
students are busy and happy enough that the rain held off.
In the photos, dozens of students swarm over the point
lands in Sarnia’s Centennial Park where they are planting fifty birch trees,
which will make a pretty addition to the landscape in a few short years.
Smaller tree-plantings were undertaken in other
municipalities all over Lambton. Lambton College’s Legacy
Project volunteers, 2,300 student from the college were out in the
community April 5, planting trees and maintenance in community parks. They were
an oddly impressive sight in the matching blue shirts.
There were people at the
LaSalle Road fire school, building picnic tables for community partners. There
were students cleaning up at the Animal Shelter on Exmouth St. and any number
of other community projects, projects designed to thank the people of
Sarnia-Lambton for their continuing support of the college over the last fifty
years. In the process they seemed to be having a good time.
Students from the
digital photography course were there to document the event and put their own
skills to work.
The project was conceived as part of the college’s
fiftieth anniversary celebrations.
The whole thing wound up with lunch for the volunteers
back at the school.
Thanks for reading.
