Awesome artists
Amber Pagni, Emma Ramsey, Sabrina Dodeso, Karissa Orth, Rodaura Rodriguez, and Dixie Hooguin each participated in the Roy Moore Elementary Parents Association Third Annual Art Auction. The six fifth-graders helped raise $2,722.65 for their school’s art program. Nancy Page at Main Street Art Gallery deserves a big thanks for framing the art.
