Class President
Alright, let's begin the meeting.
Class President
Today, we'll be discussing the volunteer work we do each year.
Mafuyu
Last year, we picked up trash around the city, raised money for charity and helped out at the children's center.
Mafuyu
In particular, because the class representatives are essentially in charge of operations. We'll be recruiting other volunteers and coming up with detailed plans for how each program is run.
Mafuyu
That's right. Some teachers will also be there, but in general, we have to take the lead.
Emu
Yes! I wanna learn all I can about running these kinds of events in order to make my dream come true!
Class President
Alright, as always, we'll be drawing program names from a box to see who is going to be in charge of what.
Class President
Each volunteer program will have two students assigned to it. After we draw names, you'll all break off into your pairs to discuss the details of your activities.
Emu
(Making the city sparkling clean by picking up trash would put smiles on the faces of everyone who comes to visit...)
Emu
(And playing with kids at the children center would be so wonderhoy! No matter what I'm asked to do, I'm gonna do my absolute best!)
Class President
Next, Otori. Please draw a name for us.

Emu
(Which means I'll need to pull lots and lots of weeds and make Operation: Smiley Face a success!)
Class President
Alright, please break off into your pairs to discuss your various activities.

Mafuyu
According to this printout, we'll be pulling weeds in the area highlighted on this map.
Mafuyu
Also, the neighborhood association has already set the date, but the time of day seems to be up to us.
Mafuyu
Which means we'll need to come up with a schedule and figure out how many volunteers we'll need. There's also...
Emu
Oh, we also need to figure out what the volunteers should bring on the day of, as well as what equipment we'll need!
Mafuyu
Yes, we do.
People volunteer for this every year, from what I understand, so we should probably look at last year's records.

Mafuyu
Yes. Since we're being asked to cover quite a large area, I think we're going to need around thirty people...
Mafuyu
But students at our school are usually busy with their clubs or studying for exams this time of year. Not to mention that people are unlikely to want to pull weeds in the summer heat. We'll obviously take measures to prevent anyone from getting heatstroke, but even still...
Mafuyu
We can start by putting up posters and handing out flyers... But we'll probably need to come up with more effective ideas...
Emu
If we do a show about how fun it is to pull weeds, then others might decide to sign up!
Mafuyu
But we'd need to write the script, recruit a cast, secure equipment, make props and find a place to perform. I'm not sure we have the time to do all that...
Emu
No, wait...! Making a bunch of noise in a quiet neighborhood is probably a really bad idea...! Hmm...

Mafuyu
But you did come up with quite a lot, Otori. I really appreciate your creativity. I tried, but I couldn't think of anything promising either...
Mafuyu
But we still have plenty of time, so let's do our best to keep coming up with ideas.
