people holding garbage bags. A lot of friends were there and so were some of his
teachers. His friend Neha said “Everyone is pitching in and cleaning the park
today.” She asked Amit if he would help. Amit said ,“Sure”, and asked for a garbage
bag. There was garbage everywhere. Amit picked up candy wrappers, juice pouches,
newspapers and apple cores. After an hour he had filled three garbage bags. His
friends filled a lot of garbage bags too. When everyone was finished, one of the
visitors in the park picked up the garbage bags and loaded in the truck to take them
to the dump. The park looked great. They put up signs around the park that read,
