Team members carry out service projects that benefit their chartered organization, their community, the environment, and needy individuals.

Some ideas for service projects include:

• Participate in BSA's Scouting for Food every March
• Contact the city manager for your city to see what projects they have
• Participate in your local community clean up day
• Contact the Highway Patrol and volunteer to participate in their "Adopt a Highway" program
• Clean up a local park or street
• Contact the Forest Service and volunteer for a project
• Contact a rest home or hospital and volunteer to visit people
• Put on an activity day for younger children in your community
• Plant flowers at a local church or city hall
• Volunteer to usher at a community play or other cultural event
• Participate in a local 'sub for Santa' campaign
• Volunteer to read to children at the library or school

Please send us any other ideas you may have.
