“We kill people who kill people to show them killing people is wrong,” is one of my favorite sayings. Unless you have voided yourself from all communication, you are aware of the international crisis in Syria.

Go Bears!

The Family Resource and Youth Service Center would like to thank everyone, who participated in our Annual Health Fair/Readifest.  
Definitely, our community collaborated to serve our children and families for this school year.  We have sponsored with many other agencies throughout the years to provide free health screenings, health resources and information, fitness demonstrations, and free school supplies.
This year we had at least 1,200 people attend this event at Spencer County Elementary School.
