    anyone done it? I'm thinking about it. I don't think they test for drugs either, which would be nice, because I like to think that community service and private pot time are not mutually exclusive.

    it's a subdivision of americorp, which is like the domestic peace corp. city year does community service, the majority of it with young school age children. they're supposed to encourage them to be creative and artistic as well as socially aware and teach them leadership qualities. when I was in elementary, I had a city year rep and he was the bomb diggity.
