To the Editor:

South Putnam schools hosted the annual third grade health fair on April 19. It was a great day of fun and learning for our students.

The Fillmore Elementary Drama Club started the fair off with a skit called "The Healthy Human Helper Contest" that was informing as well as entertaining. Kudos to all of you.

I want to thank the following participants for sharing their time and instruction with us: Tammy Page and Maggie Kovach with Family Support Services, Kim McMains and Gracie Buis with Dr. Hennette, Tammi Culberson and Jonathan Addler with Operation Life, Doug Ehmen and Sue Wilson with the Putnam County Health Department, Lou Jensen and Jane Basham with the American Red Cross and Debbie Swinford, our school counselor for teaching safety and fitness.

A special thank you to Donna Birt and the Greencastle and Cloverdale McDonald's for the children's meal coupons that were provided for each third grader. Special thanks to Jared and the Banner Graphic for their kindness in covering this event.

Thanks again.

Sincerely,

Rita Bain

School Nurse
