Aug. 27, 2008 — Editor,
Carter County CAReS (CCC) “Community, Assistance and Referral Service”, will be having a “3 on 3 Basketball” Fundraiser Saturday, Sept. 27th beginning at 9 am at the New Beginnings AOG Church located at 194 Promise Land Dr, Grayson.
We are asking that you consider becoming a sponsor in the launch of CCC, and help us build an organization of benevolence and humanity. We chose basketball as our first fundraiser because it is a sport with a tradition of pride and excellence that has the support of community leaders, residents and businesses.
In order to promote the event, we intend to have t-shirts designed that will be available for purchase as well as used as prizes for the winners in three of our four categories.
We would like to fully recognize all sponsors with a custom logo on the back of the t-shirts. Therefore, we are asking for a minimum donation of $100, and will be limiting the number of sponsors who can buy an advertisement. Still, if you cannot meet the minimum donation we would greatly appreciate a gift of any amount to cover the expenses of t-shirts and ribbons for the participants.
Please join us for this fun, family-oriented event, additional activities are planned to keep you and your children occupied.
Carter County CAReS is a non-profit organization, and all donations are tax-exempt.
For further details regarding CCC please notify Marsha McDavid @ 606-316-1885, 606-474-6445 or marshamcdavid@yahoo.com
Thank you for your support
Marsha McDavid

Questions about Hitchins school
I am a member of the Hitchins Preservation Society and have worked various events to raise money to renovate the Hitchins High School buildings. I was shocked to read that Mr. Isaacs had given the school to the Christian school group. It had been my understanding that he had given it to the HPS several years ago.
