JoyTo All “Wow!” “Geel” “A Dr. J. Basketball game, just what | wanted.’’ These are just a few of the exclamations made by the children at the FCA Christmas party. Fourteen children were nominated by the principals of six schools within the Burns school district. Each child received a toy, a sweat jacket with hood, jeans and a Bible. Burger King donated the stockings which were filled with small items and McDonalds donated a certificate for a Big Mac and Egg McMuffin. Each family received from one-half to one and one-half boxes of citrus fruit. Mrs. Beverly Putnam gave each child a pair of underwear. Mr. and Mrs. Harris called the parents and ask for the child’s sizes. The toys they chose for the children were based upon the child and the child’s family. After refreshments were served, the children and FCA members sang songs. One of the favorite was ‘’The Twelve Days of Christmas.” Russel Fitts pastor at Zion Baptist Church told the Christmas story to the chil dren and then they received their Bibles. At last Santa Claus came (Mr. Rhoney) and the children were able to open their presents and play with their new toys. 98 FCA DECA Child Care ha Wer 4 Ny d =F é FCA BOTTOM ROW: Andy Pruett, Randy McKee (captain elect), Roxanne Sain (scrapbook chairman), Barbara Lewis (chairman), Melvin Clark (captain), Denise Martin (captain elect), Jana Watts (treasurer), Jan Gettys (secretary). ae 5 Z As as earggp | Lge ROW 2: Doug McDonald, June Patterson, Louie Grigg, Jane Lackey, Harreta Clark, Carolina Clark, Kirby Pfeiffer, Tim Green.
