Magnolia The Cow

Mission Continues
On December 8th, WES teamed up with Mission Continues and the 2-11 Infantry/Charlie Company, 3rd Platoon of Ft Benning to build an outdoor classroom/weather station. Antony Billingsley (Twin) assisted with equipment from the district (Thanks to Mr. Blevins) and PTA members grilled hot dogs for all the soldiers and volunteers. This was indeed a team effort. Westview received a grant from Lowes for the materials. The soldiers did everything from assembling the benches and sanding the benches, pouring concrete, spray-painting playground equipment, replenishing sand for playground area, and picking up trash. A special thanks to Alana Evans, a volunteer parent, who planned the event via Mission Continues.
