This year, members of JAGS had a great celebration for Thanksgiving in a way they never have before. They started their exciting day off by getting placed into different groups where they would then split off and complete different activities mainly associated with the Adopt A Family program. Cans were counted, donations were sorted and collected so approximately 125 families could receive gifts for the Holidays. After listening to a guest speaker, JAGS students enjoyed a great thanksgiving meal where everyone was assigned to bring different holiday dishes. Freshman brought the main dishes such as turkey, ham, and even chicken nuggets were included. Sophomores contributed to the side dishes and vegetables while Juniors came with the appetizers and Seniors brought the desserts. As always, it was super enjoyable and a great way to have fun around this special holiday.
