Background |
| For the second year GHS
organizations participated in the Chili Cook-Off. Each team was required to
pay a $15 entry fee and a matching donation from a local business. The Vocational Student
Organizations raised over $450 to donate to the Gentry
Public Library to help promote literacy. The Gentry
community is in the process of raising the funds required to build a new
facility. Current plans involve renovation of the historic Carl
Hardware building located on Main Street at the intersection of Collins
Avenue. Upon completion, this facility will house the Gentry City Library
and a community center. This is the V.S.O.'s way of showing our support for the
new city library.
A special thanks go out to our daring judges Paul Galyean (Decatur State Bank, Gentry Branch), Mayor Wes Hogue (City of Gentry), Carolyn Philpott and Pam Harrelson (Gentry Schools Central Office). Antacids, fire extinguishers, and emergency personnel were kept close at hand! |
