December 17th
There are some incredible people in our world and many of them go unknown because they don't like to draw attention to their generous doings. I had the opportunity to meet a couple doing just that, giving back without expecting anything in return. For many years Bob and Rita have been organizing a fun - filled Christmas party for the disabled children in our county. Most of these children have to take a specially equipped bus to school because of their disabilities. The bus drivers were also involved in coordinating and volunteering for this event, which has been taking place for over 15 years. Chaparral High School provided the back drop which was decorated in a luau theme. A band played as the kids ate, danced, and did crafts. Santa and Mrs. Clause were also in attendance. What a great way to spend an afternoon, these children are simply amazing.
