Senior Service Project
Two weekends ago, about 20 seniors went out to the Montana Learning Center to tackle several service tasks that were long overdue for the center. Window washing, racking leaves, and moving furniture to new locations consumed most of our day. We were fortunate to have wonderful weather which helped keep our service spirits high. Not to mention, Canyon Ferry is not a bad location to be in anyway!
The Senior Service Project idea was formed with the goal of gathering our seniors before they leave Carroll to remind them to be proactive with their civic responsibility and the importance of that role in their community, their country, and the world. As stated in the Carroll mission statement, ‘Carroll College rededicates its spiritual, academic, and social resources to the service of the citizens of Montana, its home, and to the worldwide human family through continuing efforts to guarantee to individuals, to groups, and especially to minorities the right to life, to personal and social dignity, and to equality of opportunity in all aspects of human activity.’ This project, as many others do, will continue to support this mission of service and love.
I would like to thank those seniors that took part in the Senior Service Project. The Montana Learning Center was extremely appreciative of the great work you all accomplished that day. I would also like to thank Heather Hass and senior Crystine Miller in helping plan and organize this project.

Quote by George Bernard Shaw— "I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live." (Irish literary Critic, Playwright and Essayist. 1925 Nobel Prize for Literature, 1856-1950)
