32. final thoughts
This was the first time for our members to collaborate with other service groups and to realize the importance of road safety. It was a great experience to communicate with more than a hundred kids from different local schools and we have been already working on a future plan for the upcoming 11th graders so that they can continue this incredible service opportunity.
