Do you have an activity that you'd like to share with other volunteer
communities? We'd love to hear from you! Click
here to submit your
idea. Objective: Through a couple of fun and simple activities, volunteers cross into the reality of the memories, idiosyncrasies, family history and passions of their fellow community members. In doing so, they gain a better understanding of each other as unique people. Approximate Time: Minimum 30 minutes Materials: Pen and Paper Directions: Photocopy or otherwise duplicate the following list of questions, one for each community member. Each person answers the questions individually by writing the appropriate name next to the question. When everyone is done writing, go around the circle for each question, sharing your answers with the group. 1. Who in your community is now living farthest from his or her hometown? 2. Who in your community is the biggest sports fan? Of what sport? 3. What are the middle names of your community members? 4. How many siblings does each community member have? 5. What did your community members study in school? 6. Who in your community has the most infectious laugh? 7. Who in your community is the dancing king or queen? 8. Who in your community is the gourmet chef? 9. Who in your community can't stand to leave the house in the morning without making his or her bed? 10. Who in your community is the practical jokester? 11. When are the birthdays of your community members? 12. Who in your community is the peacekeeper/mediator in times of conflict? 13. Who in your community is the best recycler?
