Here is a representative of The Cooperative Ministries who accepted the gift of what is essentially a new bike from the 5th grade class at AC Moore. Today was the 5th grade graduation ceremony which included the class presenting the bike. They were really grateful and said they will provide it to someone who needs a bike to get to work. Maybe the Charlie Whitehurst theme will give that person a little extra motivation to work towards their dreams.
I want to thank Joshua Scott who had the idea for this theme and did a lot of work on this as well as all the 5th graders who participated. Your efforts really made a difference. We're happy to help Roots & Shoots meet the goal of Roots & Shoots to get kids to "take action to make the world a better place for people, animals and the environment." Elizabeth Balthazor, AC Moore's guidance counselor, was a tremendous help in getting everything set up and might have more energy than anyone I know. The 5th grade teachers including Mr. Pitch and Ms. Cannady were really helpful in allowing the kids time to work on this project. Thanks everybody for what you did.
