There are a lot of often conflicting opinions on what to put on a resume. Some will tell you, like the counsellor mentioned above, to keep it strictly professional, while others will say to beat your drum as much as possible.

I don't know if there is a "right" way to do it, but when I have interviewed candidates, I'd rather have too much info than too little, as long as it's clearly presented and relevant. I once hired a person because he told me his hobby was building and maintaining his salt-water aquarium. There were two other equally qualified candidates for the position, but the problem-solving skills and research he needed to do to make his aquarium work gave this guy the edge.

For what it's worth, the last part of my resume reads:

COMMUNITY SERVICE

Cybersonics Technology Team, FIRST high school robotics competition, mentor for design group, assist robot manufacturing group and scouting at competitions. My design group won the 2005 Autodesk Inventor Award with their computer aided design submission.

Girls Scouts of Freedom Valley, facilitator for “high ropes” team building aerial obstacle course.
