Joining the AmeriCorps Team

Jeremy King, CalSERVES Program Assistant

During the past few weeks, all the Leadership Team members and CalSERVES Program Assistants have been busy recruiting some great mentors for this year. Many professors at Sonoma State University and the Santa Rosa Junior College welcomed us to make brief presentations in their classes. We had many college students and staff come visit our table on campus and express their support for the work we are doing.

One day the JC team was even able to convince a student to play his saxophone near our table to attract more attention! I have seen the enthusiasm of our AmeriCorps Leadership Team members and am excited for the coming year!

Yesterday, the newly recruited half-time members joined in their first training - AmeriCorps 101. We are excited to have everyone on our team!

A Sweet Treat

Tasha Hruska, Supervising Teacher at Roseland Elementary

Roseland is excited to present a watermelon from our very own school garden. Ms. Nina Borokhim, After School Team Leader at Roseland, prepared slices of watermelon as a snack for our leaders of After School. The rewards of gardening are sweet!



Ms. Borokhim going to town serving up the tastes of summer!




Looks AMAZING!
