In middle school I was asked to help coach a basket ball team for the local Special Olympics. Now, I had never been involved in basket ball outside of PE class, but I helped coach those men and women and did so with pride. I remember going to tournaments as if I was the actual coach, dressed up and all. This was something that I enjoyed doing for two of my three years of middle school and it changed my life forever. Before this I had never had any experience with coaching, nor had I really had any authority over anybody. This experience showed me that one of my true callings in life was to coach people. Ever since middle school I’ve been helping coach younger students in everything that I’m involved in. Currently I’m an assistant coach for the Worland High School Debate Team where I help students with Lincoln Douglas debate.

Currently my family has a section of highway that we’ve adopted and take care of and it doesn’t require a whole lot of work, just the time to walk your area every once in a while. This is a great way for students to get their community service out of the way by helping keep clean the area that they live in. If my high school were to require community service I would go out and clean up the highway at least twice a month, except during the winter. It amazes me the amount of people who actually litter along popular roads. In all honesty it really irks me that these people can throw their garbage out their window into the wild and not feel bad about it. The ironic part of the
