Heroic Youth Leaders Are Treated to an Early Thanksgiving In
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MEDIA ALERT Heroic Youth Leaders are Treated to an Early Thanksgiving in Recognition of Their Environmental Stewardship Young Heroes at the Helm of Cleaning and Greening Los Angeles County are Celebrated Los Angeles, CA-----November 2019-----Los Angeles young adult “Corpsmembers” from the LA Conservation Corps (LA Corps) are being celebrated with an early Thanksgiving meal in appreciation for their daily commitment and leadership in caring for the environment and revitalizing neighborhoods across Los Angeles County with beautification and conservation projects. As Corpsmembers, they participate in hands-on job skills training and work experiences at the Corps with an emphasis on conservation; they earn a paycheck while they learn. They develop a solid work ethic, patience, effective communication skills, teamwork, self-confidence, leadership, and green workforce skills as a result of the program, becoming environmental stewards. Many Corpsmembers are at-risk young adults who join the Corps for a second chance. In addition to recycling, cleaning alleys, removing graffiti, planting trees, building trails and clearing fire fuel, these young leaders participate in and/or lead service projects, connecting people to nature and revitalizing urban green spaces across L.A. County. For example, at the top of the Culver City Stairs at the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook, Corpsmembers have been working for more than a year in collaboration with California State Parks and the Audubon Society to enhance the safety of trails for hikers, build uniform step heights, conduct trail maintenance, and protect native plants. They hosted a day of service there for community volunteers to plant trees recently on National Public Lands Day.

Thanksgiving Touchdown!
THANKSGIVING TOUCHDOWN! 2006 Online Thanksgiving Exhibition by Peggy M. Baker, Director & Librarian Pilgrim Society & Pilgrim Hall Museum Thanksgiving is far more than a festive family dinner! Even that famous “First Thanksgiving at Plymouth” incorporated sporting events. Edward Winslow, describing the harvest celebration of 1621, wrote "at which time amongst other Recreations, we exercised our Armes, many of the Indians coming amongst us, and amongst the rest their greatest king Massasoyt, with some ninetie men, whom for three dayes we entertained and feasted…” Could one of those “Recreations” and part of that “Entertainment” have been football? Certainly, “foot ball” would have been known to the Pilgrims as an elementary form of soccer (which is still “football” to most of the world). Games of kicking balls are of great antiquity. The record is far too sparse, however, to make a direct connection to that First Thanksgiving at Plymouth. Even though the tradition of the annual Thanksgiving football game does not date from 1621, it has a long and honorable history. There have been football games on Thanksgiving Day for well over one hundred years. How did Thanksgiving and football become so closely associated in the American mind? Read on for the fascinating story. A very crude game of ball-kicking was being played at East Coast colleges, such as Harvard and Yale, in the 1840s or before. Most colleges outlawed the game in the early 1860s – the tensions that eventually led to the Civil War were causing divisions on campus and a game like football, very physical and almost totally without rules, could easily erupt into violence.
