As part of their celebration of the 100th day of school, the kindergarten and first grade classes at Green Forest R-2 School held a canned food drive to benefit the Love Pack Program as well as other local food banks. The Mustangs pulled together and collected over 500 packages of food. Counting how many items had been donated was the highlight of the day since the drive started earlier this month. In addition to the donated items, Keith Inman and Kendra Schmitt donated $2,000 to the drive to honor their parents’ 61st wedding anniversary. Keith and Kendra are the son and daughter of Janet Inman and the late Ronnie Inman.
