Since 2003, Neoga High School students have volunteered to serve at a picnic and hayride for adults with disabilities. The event, hosted by Mike and Jean Snyder, took place on Saturday, October 8th, with over 90 residents of area group homes attending. In addition, 18 staff members and 20 volunteers, including several NHS students representing the AFS and FCCLA clubs, dedicated their time. Students participating included: Cayla Baker, Kassandra Baker, Shelby baker, Sophia Baker, Allie Keck, Taylor Rich, Alex Robert, Cassidy Strohl, and Gracie Upton Also assisting was NHS staff member Mrs. Erin Eddinger, her husband Sam Eddinger, and their children Allie and Chase. Retired NHS staff member Pat Andres assisted with the hayride, food preparation, activities, and clean-up. The participation of all those involved is essential to continuing the success of this annual event, and is greatly appreciated.
