Organized by Delta State\u2019s Student Government Association, The Big Green Event is a one-day, student-run service project that will serve Delta State and the Cleveland area. During this year\u2019s inaugural event, Delta State students will tackle more than 20 service projects on Delta State\u2019s campus and around the Cleveland community.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe SGA is really excited to host the inaugural Big Green Event since it provides students with an opportunity for Delta Sate Students to get involved and give back to the Cleveland Community,\u201d said Lucia Chacon, director of public relations for the DSU SGA.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been encouraging all students to sign up and help us serve Cleveland while having a fun time with their peers. This will be a fun time where students can feel like a part of something important while helping others around the community,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Delta State students will meet at Delta State\u2019s McCool Football Stadium at 8:45 a.m. to pick-up supplies and select their project for the day. The projects will be completed between 9:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

Sites for this year\u2019s event include the Cleveland Library, Downtown Cleveland, Pearmen Elementary, Wiley Garden and the DSU Child Development Center. Projects include gardening, cleaning up, weeding, window washing, raking, etc.<\/p>\n
