Contributed photo DURING THE mONTH of December, the Arnold Junior Beta Club participated in a service project called “The Caring Christmas Tree.” Donated items such as canned foods, other non-perishables, toi- letries, mittens, gloves, scarves, coats, blankets and towels were received by the faculty/staff members and the student body. All items collected were then donated to The Caring Place. This is Arnold's fifth year doing this service project. It is always wonderful to see the generous and willing hearts of students during the holiday season.
