VOLUNTEERING Students giving of themselves Senior Jennifer Kantor rests while donating blood. Volunteer work with Minnechaug students involved is not simply giv- ing up your weekend or other great- ly needed time to work for free. It is spending time with old friends and making new ones. It is working with the public, like passing out flyers at the grand opening of the New East- field Mall and dressing up in cos- tumes to work with young children. Not only do you get a great feeling from the immeasureable help you give people, but you create special bonds between fellow classmates whom you might only have slightly recognized from C-Block study be- fore your shift began. No matter what the job, volunteer work is nev- er dull when Minnechaug students are involved. In fact, sometimes it is even better than the habitual trip to the movies, followed by Friendly ' s after.
