Students worked mostly in the Carillon neighborhood near the University of Dayton Arena, according to WSU. Cadets from the University of Dayton and Cedarville University were also part of the cleanup effort.
The cadets volunteered through the organization “Rebuilding Together Dayton,” which Wright State’s ROTC established a relationship with last year.
“It’s a great community to be part of,” said Lt. Col. Michelle Stoffa, who led the effort. “And it’s a good chance to serve others and make a difference in the world.”
