"Wow!"

That's really all I could think last night.

Last night, I held the second of three programs that I have to hold as a CA. For this program, which I mentioned in a previous entry, I engaged students in a volunteer opportunity to make tie-blankets that would then be donated to Project Linus.

I had also previously spoken to some individuals on campus to get the word out about the volunteer opportunity. I had a feeling that I was going to get quite a few people, but I wasn't expecting 53. (The minimum number of people at a program has to be 8 for programs held by CAs at my school.)

The majority of the student volunteers were from various Greek organizations on campus, but everyone worked really well together and made it an incredibly successful program. I can only hope that this will inspire some of those students who volunteered last night to continue to volunteer at other events in the future.
