Stone Mountain, GA
southeastern region
During the 2014 King Holiday Weekend, the Stone Mountain Chapter engaged the community in multiple locations throughout our service area. On Saturday, January 18, the Little Legacies, Little Dynamites, and Shining Stars, our two year olds through fourth graders, created and delivered crafts to elderly residents who lived through the Civil Rights Movement at the senior citizens home, Antioch Manor Estates; while the High Flyers, fifth and sixth graders, organized clothing donations at the New Bethel AME Church clothes closet. On Monday, January 20, the Junior Teens, seventh through ninth graders, cleaned the United Methodist Children’s Home; while the Senior Teens, tenth through twelfth graders, played BINGO with and listened to veterans tell stories of their lived experiences during the civil rights movement at the Veterans Administration Hospital. We truly honored the memory of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by making it a weekend ON, not a weekend OFF!
