Something Special

As some of you may know Mr. Corey, a cousin of Faith's who spent some time with us at the Garden School as a helper last summer, a special and wonderful young 15-year-old nephew of Miss Stacey has been accepted into the People to People Student Ambassador Program to tour Europe this year.

The program objective is to promote international understanding
while building leadership skill among America's youth.

During the 21-day experience Corey will get to meet with government officials, interact with students his age in the countries he visits, and learn different cultures through home stays with host familes.  An added bonus for Corey is that he
may have the opportunity to visit with some of his family in Germany and
the Netherlands that he has not seen since he was five.

As you can imagine the trip is not inexpensive.  The American Legion in
Boonville is hosting  a $5,000 raffle to help Corey raise funds.

We can purchase a ticket at $50 for a chance to win $5,000.  Only 200 tickets will
be sold.  The $50 ticket will get you a BBQ dinner, two drinks, dance/karaoke on Saturday, March 31st from 6-11pm at the American Legion in Boonville.  There will be a half pot every hour.

If you would be interested in purchasing a ticket please contact Miss Judy at the GS  by email or just telling me at school.

This is quite an honor for Corey as only three students in Warrick county were selected for this program.  Corey is a freshman at Boonville High School.

Thanks for helping.
