Nine students and two staff members from OCM BOCES’ Cortland Alternative School recently donated their time and effort for two good causes to help their community. Through the Family Essentials Program of the Cortland County Community Action Program (CAPCO), students and staff assisted with the 2010 Cortland County Coat drive. This is the second year that the CAS has helped with the drive by organizing coats according to the various sizes donated.
In addition to providing assistance with the coat drive, the same group also helped make the playground at a local day-care safer for the children who will play there. The group recently spent time at the day-care spreading recycled rubber tire bits around the center’s newly installed playground. The children who attend the center will have opportunities to use the playground in the spring.
The CAS students involved with these community services projects were: Amber Lee, Kiersten Doupe, Jamie Coville, Gage Mitchell, Jacob Lansdowne, Brad DeGroff, Chanel Stroman, Meagan Dwelly and Tyler Thomas, all 8 through 12 grade students. The two CAS staff members were Sue Sperger and Stacy Young.
Many thanks to everyone involved!
