Gala Recognition Shout Out!

MMAjr wants to give a shout out to Elene Hess, Branson’s mom.  We need to give credit where credit is due!  Because of Elene the junior high brought in 425$!  Wow!  She worked so hard to put together the many elements of this quilt.  She facilitated the students being able to help sew the strips together and finding the parts of the quilt they could help with and picked up all the other components that were out of our league.  Thank you to Melinda Montgomery, Sarah’s mom, and the bike shop for their efforts to contribute the wonderful beach bike.  We are 470$ better thanks to your efforts! We recognize your creativity and innovative thinking.  Look at the difference you are making!
