United Way service day - Mt. Vernon

What does one do on the hottest day in September?  If you answered manual labor outside, shoveling and raking steaming tire shreds around metal playground equipment, you are correct.  You don't win anything though, sorry.  Unless of course you want my sweat drenched T-shirt.  I had to wear it - You get to hear about it.

This was a great event put on by United Way, to kick off their fundraising campaign.  There were residents from all over Mt. Vernon and Knox County, most from businesses like Kroger and Rolls Royce (apparently there is a market for this company in Knox County. Who knew?) that are United Way contributors.  The Central Ohio team (Zach, John and I) were paired with individuals from a couple different organizations to re-spread the tire mulch in the park's playground.
