    With HBA I volunteered at the Race for the Cure event as a take down crew member. When we arrived the race had already concluded however there was still a lot of work to be done by taking everything down and putting it away. Though this we helped move gallons of water, chairs and miscellaneous objects onto pallets to be stored away. We were able to finish early however I was in a group who was sent to aid in taking down a stage which was not easy. In all the work was demanding and was difficult to enjoy however it was still for a bigger and greater cause.

    With HBA I volunteered at the Pecan Street Festival as a general informant for any of the people there who needed any assistance. This event was very fun for myself because this was my first time at the Pecan Festival. I felt very important and helpful during this service and afterwards we were all rewarded monetary certificates redeemable at any of the merchant tents. Overall the work done was fun, important, and rewarding.

    I volunteered with HBA at the Best Friends Animal Society's annual Strut Your Mutt event. There I was a part of the continuous cleaning crew, which though not very demanding was still a key factor for the event. Though I didn't particularly enjoy the work we had to do we did get the opportunity to see many and pet some dogs which made the experience as a whole very enjoyable.

    For this service I went with HBA to Graffiti Park and picked up trash that was around the area. This event was both fun and rewarding because we got to take pictures and look around, which was exciting for me since it was my first time there, while also helping the park. Overall the work was somewhat tough but fun and exciting to a degree thanks to the area and scenery.

    I volunteered at the career expo and through doing so I learned just how much goes on behind the scenes to make it all work the day of. I as well got to interact with employers and build facial recognition with them. Through this I got to have a unique experience and view of the career expo to know what to expect when I do go.
