Brecknock Elementary School is preparing for its 14th Annual Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser on Friday, March 13, from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Brecknock Elementary. Brecknock’s Spaghetti Supper raises money to fund field trips, assemblies and special educational events for the students. The sixth graders will be taking orders and serving meals. It is their way to give back before they depart to middle school - kind of
like a “pay it forward” for students in the younger grades. Come and enjoy a talent show put on by the students with direction from Brecknock’s music teacher, Mr. Goodman. They will also have numerous raffle baskets available to win, if you choose to participate and purchase raffle tickets. They look forward to serving the community! Presale tickets are available (up to the day before) and anyone with questions can call Jenny Sensenig at 717-
207-8898. Shown in the photo are chefs, from left to right, (front) Brianna Libell, Haylie Good, Toby Griffin,
