"Alright!" Vanessa called out, capturing the attention of the crowd of neighbors assembled on her front lawn. "I'm so excited to see that so many of you have come out to help us today. Thank you so much for your time. We have a lot to decorate, so there will be plenty for everyone to do.
"These are the decorations for the streets. There should be enough to decorate every light post around the neighborhood." As she spoke, she motioned toward one set of boxes on her left, then to the boxes on her right. "And these are the decorations we have for the park. I thought we could start by splitting into two groups and each group could tackle a different location. Anyone who wants to work on the street decorations come with me and everyone who wants to work on the park, go with Logan."
She clapped her hands enthusiastically to signal their start as the crowd around her started to separate into groups.
