I'm screwed

So, yeah. I was assigned a community service project back in February that's due next week. I need to do 5 hours of community service this week and document it, but I don't even have an idea of what to do it on. I don't want to pick up garbage on the side of the freeway for 5 hours... and if I don't get this done I won't be able to graduate the 8th grade and go to Six-Flags with my friends.

I had to go to the hospital about a 1 1/2 months ago and I was restricted from doing anything up until now (although I still can't play any contact sports or ride bikes), so I couldn't work on this project.

Gah.... please help me with some ideas for community service!

Due next week? The only thing I could think of is to volunteer at a library, an adult day care center, or a church (you don't have to be religious to volunteer). I'm not sure if you're allowed to do this, but I would recommend volunteering at three different places so you wouldn't get bored, and so it doesn't look like you're doing this because you're forced to volunteer (even though basically you are).

If you have a guidance councilor go to them and ask what you could do, they always know goods ideas in your community.
I know its bad, but if your parents work some were thats public, you could just get someone they work with to write fake things on the paper.

Could you help out at a local community center? You said you can't play sports at the moment, but maybe you could volunteer to coach / advise younger kids or something?
