MURFREESBORO — MTSU’s
Student Government Association will do its part to enhance the greenery around
one of Murfreesboro’s most popular recreation spots.
“The BIG Event” will take place at 8 a.m. Saturday, April
16, at Kids’ Castle Playground, 200 Golf Lane off Old Fort Parkway, in
partnership with the MTSU Center for Student Involvement and Leadership and the
United Way. It is one of the largest one-day community service projects
involving college students in the nation.
“Students will be joining forces with the community to
celebrate the centennial of National Park Day,” said Myeshia Burchett, a senior
nursing major from Memphis, Tennessee, and SGA’s philanthropic coordinator.
More than 400 volunteers, including students and community
members, are expected to help cut down invading flora, plant new trees and
remove trash from the area.
“MTSU SGA is ready to give back and make this year bigger
than ever,” said Burchett.
For more information, call Burchett at 615-494-8912 or sgaphil@mtsu.edu.
