We had Ms. Amber Pope as a guest speaker, she is a MSW and who is the Founder & CEO of S.T.A.R.S. Striving Together & Reveling Strength. We had a turn out of over 50 kids and it was amazing. Thanks to those who came out support this important and powerful event.
Those in attendance were as follows:
Past President- Ps. Chad Ricks
First Lady Tracey Ricks
Former Parliamentarian-Alexandria Jones Patton
Health Policy- Emogene Joyner
