Build a web app called Cleanup Day Crew. An organizer creates an event with date, meeting point and supplies list, then draws zones on a Google Map with a name and volunteer target for each.

PROMPT 2 OF 3

The public event page shows the map with zones colored by how full they are. Volunteers sign up with name, email and group size and pick a zone. On the day, each zone leader logs bags of trash, bags of recycling, notable items and before and after photos.
