Stop ✋#2 is at Hillsville Elementary School 🏫 where another hard working Lady 👩 that I’ve never met is going through the last minute prep for her Big event today. Allyson Taylor, standing 🧍‍♂️ here next to Ethan Edwards.

Stop ✋ #1 was the office 🏢 to gather up some goodies we have for the Bingo event tonight.

I feel pretty good about the number of items that we were able to stuff inside of a bag 🎒 for Kayla Nester.

The two young Ladies at the wheel of this event today !

Allyson has been facing tough decisions about the event taking place today, after the devastating Storm turned so many people, places and things upside-down. Everyone who has been planning something are all facing tough decisions.

The final verdict was to move forward and let the Community as a whole and the Children in particular have some fun.

Pretty sure that the Adults that get to bring their Big Rigs out to show off will have some fun today as well.

Anna Nester, Amy Nester (Principal) and Mrs. Gardner.

Mrs. Nester is the kind Soul that opens to her building on Sundays for Special Olympics. We 💘 her for that.
