South Ridge sure knows how to announce a YIA Meeting #youthinactionmn


Making a difference in Proctor, once again! These students cleanup trash every spring and fall and I'm sure it has nothing to do with getting pizza after the job's complete! #youthinaction #makeadifference #duluthmn #trash


Happy back to school day students and teachers! Hard to believe the summer has come and gone, but what a great summer it was! Weekly grocery shopping with Age Well Arrowhead (with help from a wonderful shopper, Riese), hikes on the beautiful trails in Duluth, Parks and Rec projects with our favorite, Larry, and projects with Animal Allies and our service learning retreat to the Twin Cities! What a great way to get together and stay involved throughout the summer! Onto the next project and adventure! We'll see you there! Look for our fliers and info on our annual Make a Difference conference coming up in February and how you can get involved! #youthinaction #makeadifference #duluthmn #hike #summer #thankyou


Another successful project with the @duluthparksmn! Raking, trash picking, and removing brush, what a great way to spend a Tuesday! #youthinaction #makeadifference #duluthmn #trashtag #parksandrec


WOW! What an amazing service learning retreat! Cooking enchiladas for 90+ at the Ronald McDonald House, working with Minneapolis Parks and Rec, and gardening and weeding at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum! Not to mention Mama Mia at the Chanhassen Dinner Theater! Memories we won't soon forget! Thank you for everyone who helped make this retreat possible! Not sure how we're going to top that, but hey we'll give it a go! #youthinaction #makeadifference #onlyinmn #chanhassendinnertheatres #minnesota


It's hard to choose which photos to share this week! Can you tell which group was at Sumner Field Park in Minneapolis and which was at Fond du Lac Park here in St. Louis County?! That's right, we had two YIA groups doing park projects on Tuesday 🙌🤗No matter where you are - you CAN make a difference! #youthinactionmn


The bus is loaded, everyone ate @gordyshihat and shopping for homemade enchiladas for 100+ people at the Ronald McDonald House on Oak Street is done! These 20 youth represent 7 schools in St. Louis County on YIA's 3-day Service Retreat! 🙌#youthinactionmn #stlouiscountymn #serviceretreat


Lester Park - litter picked up ✅, pavilion swept for party at 4 ✅, and wood chips raked out ✅ - ALL thanks to these fabulous youth volunteers who literally sweated it out! All it takes is a little bit of time and direction from Larry with @duluthparksmn! #youthinactionmn


We were busy last week! 3 days face painting at sidewalk days with @gdcduluth, a park clean up, a beautiful hike at Enger, and grocery shopping with Age Well Arrowhead! Let's do it again this week! #youthinaction #makeadifference #duluthmn #engertower #hiking


Happy July! We're back and trying to recreate American Gothic aka most famous farm couple in the world...apparently some of us didn't follow instructions. If you go to Fairmont Park this week, you'll see our restoration project with @duluthparksmn! We worked hard and had a little fun 😜#youthinactionmn


Gardening today with @duluthparksmn 🌼 Cool project! Checkout the planters next time you stroll through downtown Duluth. A couple of hours can make a big difference! #youthinactionmn #downtownduluthmn


Another eventful week! Shopping for AWA this morning & hiking @hartleynature yesterday! Giving back and exploring nature! Did you know time in the woods and volunteering your time can improve both your mental and physical health?! Join us next week 🌞#youthinactionmn #agewellarrowhead #hartleynaturecenter


Burger Bash was today at the Miners Memorial Building! This event supports our upcoming YIA Service Retreat 🙌 We had over 240 orders! 🍔We appreciate all the support and can't wait to share photos from our retreat in July! Stay tuned! #youthinactionmn #stlouiscountymn


Special event @animalalliesdlh today! We had 19 youth attend - they cleaned, made pupsicles & kitty toys and socialized with the animals! There are some very sweet dogs and cats looking for homes! We look forward to volunteering again! 😺🐶 #youthinactionmn #animalalliesdlh


First week of summer programming has been awesome! Hiked 5 miles yesterday 💪 - we did the whole Brewer Park Loop! And then #agewellarrowhead grocery shopping this AM. No pictures; too busy shopping & delivering 🛒🚗 🙌#youthinactionmn #brewerparkloop #stlouiscountymn


Back to where we started! 12th Street Beach pick up with @duluthparksmn what a great way to spend an afternoon! See you next Tuesday! #youthinaction #duluthmn #lakesuperior #makeadifference #trashtag


Northwoods YIA & Student Council + Mesabi East YIA hosted Adopt-a-Highway clean-ups this past week. Let's hope for sunshine this long weekend & just as much fun as they had! #youthinactionmn #stlouiscountymn
