Cadets from South Effingham High School’s NJROTC performed numerous community service projects at the YMCA in Rincon on Aug. 9.

Each cadet worked four hours, accumulating a total of 160 hours for the event.

The cadets split up into groups and worked on many different tasks throughout the day, such as digging up and moving benches, clearing a field of sticks and roots and moving a stage with a group effort.

The cadets finished out the day with a swim at the Y’s pool.
