Congratulations to Mrs. Anna Rocca's first grade class from Temple Christian for winning a pizza party from Fat Jack's Pizza!
Those students were tasked with packing food into people’s cars and sending them off on their way. The students say that especially around this time of year, being able to help those who may not be as fortunate is an important thing for them to take part in. Inside the food bank itself, students from Bath High School were also working away to help out. They were packing boxes that will be distributed at the upcoming community thanksgiving dinner that will be held at the Civic Center.

The Lima Police Department has been looking for ways to show its appreciation for graduating seniors and they did so today in social distancing fashion. LPD hosted a drive-thru cookout for graduating seniors from Lima Senior, Temple Christian and Lima Central Catholic. They could drive up in the Clock Tower Plaza around lunch time and get a big lunch and some prizes. Much of the food and drinks were donated by places like Meijer, Pepsi and Coca-Cola. Officers a part of Community Oriented Policing felt the seniors had a difficult end to their high school careers and wanted to show their support.
