I want to thank everyone who bought items from our Spirit Gear Drive. However, I just received an email from the gentleman who was doing our drive. Neither of us was aware that there was a minimum order of 50 items when he signed us up for this fundraiser. And unfortunately, we only sold 23.
He told me that they will be cancelling the orders and refunding everyone's money.
If you are still interested in buying a Joppa shirt, see one our Juniors. They will be selling t-shirts and long sleeve t-shirts.
Thank you, Army National Guard for our senior volleyball banners.

I need to give a huge shout out to one of my drivers. Jeff Pippin you did an amazing job this evening. At the end of his bus route he sees a man in a truck. The man was unconscious. He ran off the road and into a pond. Jeff calls said call 911 and gives me where he was. Jeff takes off his shoes jumps into the pond. The best part he gets the man to safety. I am not sure who the man was or how he was doing. The truck was fully submerged.
