Connecting with Nature through Community Service

Seven Bends State Park (Massanutten Military Academy) - The Shenandoah Valley is beloved for its unique beauty and opportunities to get outdoors. Massanutten Military Academy cadets helped make sure the community will find both for years to come through our community service project on Friday, March 21st.

About a dozen cadets travelled to Seven Bends State Park for their volunteering opportunity. This work day was designed as the next step in the park's new mosaic display. The Community Art Collaborative has been designing the mosaic, which will be placed in May. Cadets helped place posts and stumps, along with other duties as assigned.

This effort is part of the way Massanutten cadets represent the Academy's motto: Non Nobis Solum (Not For Ourselves Alone). Each cadet is required to complete 25 hours of community service each academic year to help them grow into responsible, compassionate leaders. If you're looking to help your teen reach new heights, inquire about enrolling them at Massanutten today!
