| Coach Joe and some of the RESN students |
The Wednesday before Thanksgiving Day is usually an early dismissal day for RESN students. Coach Joe Ravasio and teacher Earl Gilpin, several years ago, started a supervised all-afternoon fun and activity period. The catch is that there is a fee for attendance – a volunteer donation to the Washington City Mission. This year, after the early dismissal, the gym was packed with students having a great time under the supervision of Mr. Gilpin and Coach Joe. Coach Joe is back as a volunteer, as he’s now retired as a teacher.
The kids this year had a great time during the special activity period and managed to bring $627 in for the Washington City Mission. What a great gift from the RESN students, Mr. Gilpin and Coach Joe.
