Notes

A community event that I attended in the beginning of the fall season was the Staten Island Egyptian Festival. Every year when this time rolls around, things get more exciting but also chaotic, and much help is always needed to help things run more smoothly. I've assisted by helping set up all the products we were selling as well as the food as everything always has to be in a specific place and remain there, so we are also responsible for checking in every once in a while to make sure that the order wasn't disturbed. Additionally, I've handled the cash register which proved to be as equally fun as setting up, except here you got to communicate with a lot more buyers and get to know them even if it was only for a brief amount of time. This event is always something that I will look forward to helping in even when it gets to be strenuous work.
