Sharing a Smile

Friday, May 4, 2012
Third-grader Marcus Robinson was able to help Ronald show an example of empathy. During that time Robinson and Ronald made people laugh by doing a magic trick. It was said that Robinson now knew how Ronald felt each day.

Reelsville Elementary School had the honor of hosting Ronald McDonald at their school on Thursday afternoon. Ronald was there as part of the Giving Back with Ronald McDonald program. Ronald talked to the kids about three important things dealing with giving back, talent, time and gifts. The school collected 417,000 pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House. Typically, schools must collect one million tabs to get a free show, but due to the school closing McDonald's decided to give them a treat.

Third-grader Madison Brauer helped Ronald plant imaginary flowers during the presentation.
Reelsville will be hosting a farewell open house on Saturday, May 5 from 1-5 p.m.
