Letter of Thanks and Appreciation On the Saturday before Mother’s Day, I went to get gas to mow a neighbor’s yard who recently had surgery. Unfortunately, because of not giving much thought (and probably getting senile since I am not young), I placed my wallet on the back of my car while pumping the gas into my little gas can. Th en, of course, drove off without another thought until later in the day when I realized what I must have done with my wallet. Th us, I spent Mother’s Day thinking my adult sons should just put me away because my mind was going and stupidity was taking over. Later in the afternoon, I received a call from a gentleman that explained that he and his lovely wife were going to a Mother’s Day Celebration at the old KOA Campground and discovered my wallet laying on CR 349 and wanted to let me know they had retrieved it. Even though I was missing my family on Mother’s Day, I could not have received a better gift than having my faith renewed and confi rmed in people and their goodness during there trying times.

Joyce Bullock Elementary School teachers and staff held their annual spring carnival which proved to be a hit once again. Families were entertained by booths sponsored by the teachers. A great time was had by all as kids of all ages joined in on the fun with a hay ride, face painting, bowling, snow cones, pizza, fi ngernail painting, basketball shooting, tattoos, and much more. Each child was given a bag of "goodies" to help them prepare for the upcoming school year. Each bag included books, word lists, math facts, and other things a student needs to know for the next grade from Kindergarten to 3rd grade.

Mrs. Chorvat watches as the kids have fun at the Ring Toss booth. Daisy, Mrs. Hunt, Mrs. Childs, Mrs. Brackett, and Mrs. Liles made sure no one left hungry. Final WES ‘Students of the Month’ for year 2011-2012 by Lisa Statham Posteraro
