When my dad taught at Reed, there were three student suicides in a year, Rebholz said. He went to the administration and said I want to make P.E. a requirement.

The Rainbow Society then donated the bears to Toy Mountain, which in turn donates them to sick kids. “We love the idea of charities helping other charities,” said Campbell. “Contributing these bears to Toy Mountain and the funds go to the Rainbow Society granting wishes to children who are suffering from life threatening or chronic illnesses.”

Managers at the Bradbury Centre in Bonar Bridge were determined Covid-19 was not to going to spoil the day care unitâs traditional Christmas lunch, one of the highlights of the year.

Last Wednesday 71 free lunches, along with Christmas gifts, were delivered to the independently run unitâs clients, most of whom are elderly.
Thereâs an old saying in show business: âThe show must go on.â
And this fall, the Choruses & Theatre of Avon Central School took the phrase to heart. With the district auditorium undergoing renovation and the COVID-19 pandemic placing limits on gatherings and other restrictions, the theater troupe found a way to continue what has become a more than 20-year holiday tradition in the community.
The schoolâs annual musical production of âScroogeâ will be presented for a 22nd consecutive year when a filmed version premieres at 7 p.m. Dec. 22 on the big screen at the Vintage Drive-In, 1520 West Henrietta Rd., Avon.
