Helping Hands: Key Club Service

by Alexis Arms
This past Sunday, the Haynes Academy Key Club participated at the Special Persons picnic which was held at Williams Baptist Church. There was excitement in the air as students walked through the door wondering what exactly they'd be doing.
All volunteers dressed up in wigs and skirts, picked a person, and took them to the dance floor for line dances. Following relay games, where teams were encouraged with cheers, a lunch of hot dogs, chips, cookies and juice was served. The festivities closed when the entire gathering joined in singing "Amazing Grace". The purpose of the event was to spend time with these special individuals, but all of the volunteers agreed that it had been a memorable event for everyone. The picnic was a success!
