The Boundary County Middle School Leadership
Class under Kelly Hinthorn out donated the
Bonners Ferry High School FFA and Julie Smith in
a friendly competition to support the
Ministerial Association Christmas food basket
delivery program.
These two groups challenged each other as to who
could collect the most frozen turkeys and/or
hams for this wonderful community organization.
BCMS took the contest with a total score of
82-56 (BCMS 70 turkeys/12 hams; BFHS 4
turkeys/51 hams).
FFA earned bonus points by delivering the items
to Memorial Hall at the Fairgrounds in a driving
snow storm on Monday morning. Transportation
Director Bill Irwin was at the helm of the bus
during the storm.
At Memorial Hall, a large number of volunteers
accepted the students' hams and turkeys with
cheers and open arms. The smiles on the
student's and volunteer's faces was priceless!
I am proud to watch our students give back to
our community. We are a community school! We are
all in this together; we must support each
other! |
