The Big Event

STILL GROWING OUR NUMBERS, but still stronger than ever! Huskies once again came together this year at the Community Government Association’s annual Big Event! With over 1000 student volunteers tackling over 200 jobs throughout the town of Bloomsburg. Making the Big Event, well B-I-G in more ways than one!

Student volunteers tackled a host of chores such as raking, gardening, mulching, removing debris, digging and various spring-cleaning duties.

Sponsored by the CGA, the single-day community service event gives students the opportunity to say "thank you" to Bloomsburg area residents and show appreciation for the community they live, learn and work in. CGA works hard each year to ensure that the largest student-run community service project on campus continues to grow each year.

They coordinate this one day event by combining campus, town and student officials and volunteers focusing on aspects, such as town recruitment, fundraising, transportation and student life.

This year’s event had a first, the Mobile Dunkin’ Truck showed up and was there providing refreshments to participants and volunteers.
