Molly Gibson Memorial Breakfast

We would like to thank the Franklin FFA for sponsoring the Molly Gibson Memorial Breakfast once again this year!

The breakfast was held on Feb 23rd and will benefit the Johnson County Health Foundation's "Pooh Bears for Molly" campaign. The final counts are not yet in, but it is estimated that 74 visitors came through the door this year, walking out with full bellies and leaving behind $300 and 8 Pooh Bears for the cause.

For those of you who are not aware, one of Molly's favorite characters was Pooh Bear. "Pooh Bears for Molly" was started in an effort to collect Pooh Bears of all kinds and donate them Johnson County Memorial Hospital. The Pooh Bears are then given to all infants and younger children who are admitted into the hospital. Each Pooh Bear donated makes for another smiling child! In addition, all cash donations go toward the purchase of additional Pooh Bears.

Please be sure to mark your calendars for next years event, which will be held on Feb 22nd, 2008. The location is yet to be determined as this will be the first year at the new High School.

Pictures to come....
