Newspaper Man!!

Hey guys,
This Sunday(9/8/15) there was an event that took place in my society. It was an event organised by ITC. All children in the society had enrolled themselves for this event. It was all about going door to door and collecting their old newspapers and books,etc.  I was one of the kids. Both my cousin brothers had joined me.
All the members had to assemble in the Basketball court in the Society at 11:00AM. After everyone assembled, they elected volunteers to guide the children. Our group consisted of 
  1. Anirudh
  2. Sarvesh
  3. Amey 
  4. me
  5. Volunteer 
The blocks that were allotted for us were
  1. Mahogany A&B
  2. Birch A&B
  3. Silverpam A&B
Everyone went door to door and rang the bell and collected the newspapers. Some houses said that they only read e-paper and do not buy newspaper. Exactly at 12:00PM, all the kids and volunteers assembled again in Basketball court. There was a huge pile of newspapers, magazines, books, exam sheets, etc.  
Now it was the most challenging task. We had pile up the papers and take it all the way to the clubhouse. This was a very difficult job to do. After all was over, I went back home.

This morning showed me how hard Newspaper Men work.
