On the 4th of July, 2025, our team Eric Huang, Jerry Yang, Elissa Song, Emily Qi, Kevin Chen And Xiao Mao volunteered at the City of Sammamish’s the Fourth on the Plateau event at the Lower Commons from 3:30pm to 9:00 pm for 5.5 hours. Our team members worked hard to make this event both positive and enjoyable for all attendees by using our 21st century skills. All team
members worked two jobs. First, we manned the bouncy houses along with various other fun activities, directing and ensuring the safety of all participants included. Second, we served as “roamers” who would overlook and check around for overall event safety and act as helpers.
Our team members collectively agree upon the fact that this event helped us refine our communication and social skills.
