MLK DAY INSPIRES DRAWING

Martin Luther King Day was honored by the Boys and Girls Club’ s 6 and 7 years olds with a drawing contest. 

Conducted by Maria Vega and Liam McDonald,Torch Club members, the 6 & 7 year room kids were treated to reading and information about the Reverend Martin Luther King. 

The kids all seem to enjoy the story of his life,” said Vega. I don’t know if the younger kids really know what the I Have a Dream” speech is all about, but they seem to understand that he was a good man and words mean a lot to everyone,” said McDonald. 

Shown here is Lilly Taska with her winning drawing of Reverend King giving his most recognized speech. 

I have heard this a few times, and I know he was a great man because he has his own day,” said Taska.
