Welcome Week Service Project Bringing in Fall Semester with some service and fun! On September 1st, UMBC students are gathering to kickoff Fall semester with some service work!  We will be heading into Baltimore City to work with Parks & People Foundation and Project T.O.O.U.R.  We will get our hands dirty in the garden, work on the kids playground and help paint some of the buildings' structures. A great way to get involved in service, meet new friends and have some fun.
