Kildeer Book Fair Community Service

For my 1st and 2nd hours I helped out at the Kildeer Book Fair by selling pizza. Each year the school puts on a book fair and the proceeds go towards the school to help with projects within the school and the money sold for the pizza does too.
When we got there we met the women in charge of the book fair. They showed us around a little bit and then took us to the cafeteria where we had to set up. We put up the signs showing where the pizza would be so that parents could find us and then took some of the pizzas out of the warm oven and cut them up. There were a few people there also volunteering so some of us handed out pizza, while others passed out napkins and others collected money. I was mainly in charge of the pizza but we all switched off a little. We interacted with the kids and their parents, learned about the books they got and had a lot of fun. At the end of the two hour shift we took down the signs, and distributed the left over pizza to people still in the building. We also cleaned up the cafeteria and in the back where we kept the pizzas and other things we were selling.
