Also, if you want to help a kid further, join us on Wednesday, Dec. 16th at the Newport/Plymouth Elementary School for their annual Holiday Craft Fair!  You can help kids ‘shop’ and wrap gifts for their families for a whole day (woohoo, no school!).  It’s loads of fun!  If you have any questions about this community service see ACO Commander Laura Craig, ACO 1SG Brad Cookson, or BNCO Audrey Sylvester.

Coming up this month, also, is our annual ‘Holiday Formation’.  This is our second largest get-together throughout the year where parents can come see what we do during our formations, and they can watch you get promoted or earn awards.  This year our formation is on Thursday, Dec. 17th @ 2:35 in the Nokomis gym.

This is going to be a busy month, so roll up those sleves and let’s get to it!

In all, $1,091 was raised for this cause and will be going to the Corinna Heating Assistance Program. This money was raised together by three schools, Nokomis, Corinna Elementary and Newport Elementary. The Corinna Elementary raised $455.27, and Nokomis raised $543.88, while Newport Elementary raised $91.85.

This money will be donated on Thursday at 2:00. Hopefully next year we can strive for a higher goal to help others in a time of need. Thank you to all who contributed to this cause.
