Can be found in unusual places. Have you ever considered volunteering in your community?President Barack Obama's call for Americans to better their communities through community service is an opportunity to not just better the community, but to also meet new people and expand your network.

posted on the Chicago White Sox website. The ball club will organize community service events during 2009 that will incorporate support from the organization, players, staff and members of a new volunteer group. These volunteers will be called upon to join team members and front-office staff at special events during the 2009 baseball season and offseason.
