- 12:00 AM8:00 PMBulls Service Break with the Tampa Bay Aquatic PreserveBulls Service Breaks (BSB) is the USF Tampa campus alternative service breaks program in the CLCE. The goal of the experience is to engage in immersive, reflective programs and services focused on moving students from Volunteers to Conscientious to Community Collaborators on the Community Collaborator Continuum. BSB is a part of a national movement whose purpose is to raise awareness of root causes of social issues and injustices through education, direct service, and immersive cultural exchange. Each BSB trip is rooted in the Break Away Nine Components of a Quality Alternative Break, which are: strong direct service, orientation, education, training, reflection, reorientation, diversity and social justice, and full engagement. The social issues explored on each BSB Trip align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.. . . . The BSB experience consists of three critical parts:. . • Pre-Trip Transformation: Prepare participants for on-site, immersive experience and provide initial education, orientation and training about site-specific social issues. . • On-Trip Immersion: Participants work alongside communities to look critically at the root causes of social issues and evaluate the role they have in the community.. . • Post-Trip Re-Orientation: Participants commit to find avenues for continued community involvement and take action locally. . . . The Tampa Bay Aquatic Preserves, managed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's Office of Resilience and Coastal Protection, highlight the best of what our state has to offer: open water, inlet bays, tidally influenced creeks and rivers, oyster reefs, seagrass beds, salt marshes and mangrove forests. These habitats are vital to Florida's iconic wildlife such as manatees, dolphins, fishes, oysters, and an abundance of wading, nesting and migratory birds. Although not widely known, TBAP even has a variety of corals in its hard-bottom areas. . . . . Estimated cost: $40 for transportation, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to camp on a local island, food, educational and training materials, and experiences.. . . . Experience counts for approximately 20 Community Service hours.. . . . Registering for this trip on BullsConnect does not guarantee attendance on the trip. Once you register, please look for email communications from CLCE staff with further instructions on how to reserve your spot on the trip.
