McLeod dedicates garden for long-time employee As part of McLeod’s celebration of its Mission, Vision and Values Week, a dedication ceremony was held for Nathan’s Garden on May 6, on the McLeod Concourse.

Nathan Brown was an iconic McLeod figure whose loyalty and commitment spanned nearly seven decades of service. At his retirement celeb r a t i o n , McLeod leaders announced that a new garden would be built between the central parking deck and the front of M c L e o d Regional Med- NATHAN BROWN ical Center when construction of the McLeod Concourse was complete.

During the ceremony, Marie Segars, Administrator of McLeod Regional Medical Center, and Dale Locklair, Vice President of Procurement and Construction spoke about Nathan and the garden. In addition, Nathan’s Pastor, the Rev. Alfonso Porter, provided reflections about Nathan.

Nathan served as a member of the McLeod Engineering team and was recognized as a devoted groundskeeper during a celebration in his honor in July of 2010, which celebrated his 65th anniversary of taking care of the McLeod campus during many years of change and expansion.

MARIE SEGARS, ADMINISTRATOR, BLOWS BUBBLES WITH HOSPITAL STAFF IN GARDEN DEDICATED IN THE MEMORY OF NATHAN BROWN He was admired by his fellow workers, physician and leadership teams for his dedication to the organization. He was an ambassador for the organization, proudly wearing his name tag at all events and during his daily treks to and from work each day. Even after his retirement, he proudly wore his

McLeod badge, (Employee ID #1), as a constant reminder of his permanent place in the McLeod family.

An encourager, Nathan’s service to others epitomized the mission of McLeod. He had a personal stake in McLeod, calling it “my hospital, my flowers, my grounds.”

McLeod leaders consistently

sought Nathan for his wise counsel and practical advice. He was candid and hopeful and helpful. One of the few people who actually knew McLeod founder Dr. F. H. McLeod, Nathan started working in his gar-

VIEWPOINT

SC kids doing worse Part 2

By Phil Noble Last week in this space, we reported on the annual Kids Count study on the status of children in the country and for each of the 50 states. For our kids in South Carolina, the results were not good, as we as a state had slipped two places in the rankings.

Last year SC ranked 45th of the 50 states in the well-being of our children, the same place as in 2013, but down two places from 2012, when we ranked 43rd.

We are gaining speed in the wrong direction.

Most weeks, I hear from people around the state with their comments on my columns. Sometimes they say some very nice things, and sometimes they say some not so nice things. Last week, after writing about Kids Count, I heard from Connie Dykstra from Bluffton, who until recently was involved with the organization nationally, and Melissa Strompolis with the Children’s Trust Fund, which runs the project in South Carolina. They gave me some valuable background information, and also some very good data about how our kids are doing in each of the 46 counties of the state.

Here’s what they told me. The Annie E. Casey Foundation started the Kids Count Project in 1990 and South Carolina began participating that same year. Similarly to the Casey Foundation nationally, in SC the Children’s Trust Fund uses the Kids Count data to create recommendations, and to advocate for policies that benefit children. All of this information, as well as and their legislative agenda of nine policy recommendations for improving early care and education in our state, is on their website at SCChildren.org.

In looking at the comparative data for each of SC’s 46 counties, it is clear that there is a wide gap between the well-being of our children in the urban/suburban and rural areas. Below is a listing of how each county ranks, grouped into four tiers from the best to the worst. The results show that Tier 1 (the highest ranking counties) are generally urban/suburban counties and those in Tier 4 (the lowest ranking counties) are rural counties.

Tier 1 – York, Lexington, Dorchester, Pickens, Greenville, Beaufort, Spartanburg, Calhoun, Berkeley, Richland, Charleston Tier 2 – Kershaw, Edgefield, Anderson, Oconee, Newberry, Horry, Abbeville, Lancaster, Greenwood, Aiken, Saluda Tier 3 – Sumter, Florence, Chesterfield, Georgetown, Cherokee, Union, Laurens, Hampton, Darlington, Bamberg, Orangeburg, Tier 4 – Clarendon, McCormick, Chester, Barnwell, Jasper, Fairfield, Dillon, Colleton, Marlboro, Marion, Lee, Williamsburg, Allendale An even more stark comparison is the ranking of counties along Interstate I-95 (often called the Corridor of Shame) compared with counties off Interstate I-85, which crosses the upper part of the state.

Remember, a low number is good in that it is where the county ranks on the scale of 1 to 46 counties.

Interstate I-95 counties – Dillon 40, Marlboro 42, Florence 24, Darlington 31, Clarendon 34, Dorchester 3, Colleton 41, Hampton 30, Jasper 38.

Interstate I-85 counties – Oconee 15, Anderson 14, Greenville 5, Spartanburg 7, Cherokee 27 Another interesting way to look at the data is to compare the urban/suburban areas to each other.

Upstate – Anderson 14, Greenville 5, Spartanburg 7 Columbia – Richland 10, Lexington 2 Charleston – Charleston 11, Berkeley 9, Dorchester 3 In trying to sort through this avalanche of numbers from the column last week and this week, the question is: What does all this mean? There are two basic conclusions: first, the children in South Carolina are in bad shape; we rank 45th of the 50 states – and we are losing ground. And second, even within SC there is a wide disparity of well-being among children, with those in the rural areas suffering the most.

Now, to anyone who reads a local paper, drives through rural parts of our state, or can simply observe the children around them – none of this will come as a great shock.

We as a state are guilty of child abuse.

The great tragedy is that no one will go to jail as a result.

Excuses not to diet or exercise Here are a collection of humorous quotes and comments concerning dieting and exercising that I’ve collected.

The source of most of them is unknown.

I don’t exercise because it makes the ice jump right out of my glass.

Brenda Harrison

When you reach middle-age, all you exercise is caution.

Tried exercise but found I was allergic to it – my skin flushed, my heart raced, I got sweaty, short of breath.

Very very dangerous.

“Wow, that Lean Cuisine really filled me up,” said no one - ever!”

Shouldn’t tossing and turning at night be considered exercise?

I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.

Editor

Sweat is fat crying!

When people ask if I exercise, I tell them I do crunches every day – especially Captain Crunch and Nestle Crunch.

Does the handle on your recliner chair count as an exercise machine?

I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven’t lost a pound.

Apparently you have to go there.

Every time I hear the dirty word “exercise,” I wash my mouth out with chocolate!

Walking can add minutes to your life.

My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. Now she’s 97 years old and we don’t know where the heck she is.

It took a lot of will power, but I finally gave up dieting.

If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.

I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.

The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.

I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain figures out what I’m doing.

The only reason I would take up exercising is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.

“The trouble with jogging is that, by the time you realize you’re not in shape for it, it’s too far to walk back” – Franklin P. Jones.

It doesn’t matter how slow you jog – you’re lapping everyone on the couch.

I decided to take an aerobics class. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, perspired for half an hour, but by the time I got my tights on, the class was over.

Bond bill crucial to tech system future

By Ben Dillard, President Florence-Darlington Technical College Florence-Darlington Technical College (FDTC) and the South Carolina Technical Education System have a long history of providing qualified graduates to South Carolina business and industry. These graduates are vital to a thriving economy and to the state’s future economic development. In fact, without the contributions of technical college graduates during the past 50 plus years, South Carolina would undoubtedly be an economic wasteland today and would lack a road map to the future.

FDTC recently celebrated its 50th anniversary of providing access to education to the citizens of South Carolina’s Pee Dee region. It has grown through the years from a 10-acre campus and a mere 250 students to a 246acre campus with more than 6,200 students today. It now offers more than 75 degree, diploma, and certificate programs in a host of technological, scientific, engineering, medical, manufacturing, and business fields. The skilled graduates of FDTC’s many programs are a prominent key to what we all hope is the Pee Dee area’s future prosperity.

This future, however, is in danger of being derailed.

FDTC has always been able to respond with flexible solutions to the workforce needs of area business and industry, but many years of declining funding and shrinking revenues have forced FDTC to defer many of its operational and capital improvement needs for year upon year. FDTC’s main campus was largely built in the late 1960s and early 1970s and was designed to support a maximum enrollment of

DR. BEN DILLARD around 4,200 students. The impact of revenue declines in recent years has severely stressed FDTC’s ability to maintain adequate infrastructure, state-of-the-art facilities, and the equipment for training tomorrow’s workers.

In the not too distant future, it is my fear that FDTC will find it next to impossible to give Pee Dee students access to a quality higher education (with exposure to the latest technology) at a price that has always been touted for its affordability.

For the reasons listed in the above paragraph, the recently proposed bond bill offers hope to FDTC and South Carolina’s Technical College System as a whole.

FDTC’s projects in the bond bill will, in fact, help us to continue our famous ability to shift directions quickly and meet business and industry training needs for skilled workers for tomorrow’s jobs.

The bond bill is a great investment in the future employability of Pee Dee area residents and ensures

that our citizens have a viable option for being trained to compete in the global marketplace.

South Carolina has a history (between 1968 and 2001) of passing a bond bill every 1.26 years. That period is noted for the rise of the state’s invaluable technical college system, for its move from an agrarian to an industrial economy, and for rapid improvements in the quality of life of many, if not most, of its citizens. By providing for the construction and repair of higher education facilities, bond bills have been crucial to helping our state move forward. It has, however, now been 14 years since the state’s last bond bill. During that time, South Carolina has failed to make a significant investment in the educational future of its citizens. As a result, the last 14 years have been marked by skyrocketing tuition and crumbling infrastructure at the campuses of many statesupported institutions of higher education across the state. It is time for the Palmetto State to secure its future (and keep pace with neighboring states) by once again investing in one of its most significant assets: the South Carolina Technical Education System.

The currently proposed bond bill offers South Carolina an array of advantages.

Since South Carolina is one of only five states to have maintained a Moody’s AAA credit rating during the past 40 years, the bond bill does

First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

not put this credit rating at risk. In addition, the bill does not require any additional general appropriation and will not raise taxes.

The bond bill’s major advantage is that it will help FDTC and the rest of South Carolina’s Technical Education System to provide quality, skilled workers for tomorrow’s jobs. These workers will make our state more competitive in attracting future industry to the state. The bond bill needs to be passed because it is imperative that South Carolina invest in its future prosperity and that of its citizens.

D E VOT I O N

When life doesn’t make sense “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.” (Job 13:15 in the King James Version of the Holy Bible.)

None of us escape trouble. We’ve all been there at one time or other. What do you do when life doesn’t make sense? Your world has been turned upside down and there doesn’t seem to be any answers to what is going on. How do you handle the barrage of problems?

Turn to the Word of God and do what others did during their trying situations.

The Bible is full of varying scenarios of those who came through troubling times and difficulties. One such real live character was that of Job. He lost all of his children and all of his possessions in a short period of time.

Recently I followed a story of a family who barely

Kaye Singleton

escaped from their burning house. The lady of the house stated that in spite of losing the house at least those most precious to her were spared.

I imagine Job felt the loss of his own children the greatest loss to him. How do you go on after losing your children? Not easy, I am sure.

Job got through by choosing to trust his God! He showed unwavering confidence in God, even in death. He maintained his trust in the God he served.

When life doesn’t make any sense at all you can continue if you do it Job’s way and that is be resolute in

trusting God. Job showed unwavering confidence in God, even in death. He maintained his trust in God for He knows the end from the beginning and He has his all seeing eye on us.

Life is so perplexing at times. I ask God to help me to not forget that He is aware of where I am at and that His grace will be sufficient to help me through. I plan to trust Him completely.

I am so glad I don’t have to face life alone.

GRANT

Rec. Dept. receives $25,000 grant to support out-of-school time programs The City of Florence Recreation Department, in partnership with the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA), has received a $25,000 grant to support its out-ofschool time healthy food access and nutritional literacy programs. The gift is part of a $2.3 million grant NRPA received from the Walmart Foundation to support out-of-school time programs in 75 park and recreation agencies. The purpose of the grant is to: • Increase the number of healthy meals children in low-income communities receive through the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) during out-ofschool times; • Provide evidencebased, age-appropriate nutrition literacy to children that create behavior change by teaching the importance of healthy eating; • Implement nutrition and physical activity standards that increase access to healthier foods and increase opportunities for physical activity; and • Promote meal and program efficiencies that will reduce costs, maximize existing resources, decrease food waste, and lead to more sustainable meal programs.

The City’s grant will help increase access to healthy foods and improve opportunities for physical activity.

The City will also receive additional support for meals provided through USDA afterschool and summer

feeding programs as well as nutritional literacy materials to help ensure life-long healthy habits for Florence’s youth.

This grant supports NRPA’s campaign – Commit to Health – which encourages the implementation and evaluation of Healthy Eating, Physical Activity (HEPA) standards in park and recreation sites across the country. NRPA’s goal is to have at least 2,000 participating sites in five years. Within the first year of the program, 486 sites have pledged to commit to health and 51,382 children now have improved access to healthy foods and increased opportunities for physical activity.

According to Share our Strength’s No Kid Hungry Campaign, one in five children in America struggles with hunger. Over 21 million low-income children receive free or reduced meals during the school year to help them meet their daily nutrition needs, but only 3 million of these children are getting these meals during the summer.

During summer months, these children may not have access to quality and healthy food to help them grow – making city’s work during out-of-school times that much more critical.

“Thanks to a successful first year with Commit to Health and the Walmart Foundation, 51,382 children now have improved access to healthy foods and physical activity,” said Barbara Tulipane, President and CEO of NPRA. “Parks and

Recreation are proving their critical role in the health of their communities and we can’t wait to see the impact this year’s grants will have on fostering life-long healthy habits in children across the country.”

Darlene Buchanan, Recreation Manager, states: “We are so thankful to the National Recreation and Parks association and WalMart for this opportunity.

This grant allows us to expand our capabilities in our summer food program to reach even more hungry children than before. We are excited about the possibilities going forward.”

The City of Florence Recreation Department provides out-of-school time programs and activities that are both educational and fun. Activities include fitness, nutrition education, athletic skill training, swimming, arts and crafts, games, computers, movies, music and drama; as well as several off-site day trips.

About National Recreation and Park Association The National Recreation and Park Association is a national not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing park, recreation and conservation efforts that enhance quality of life for all people. Through its network of more than 47,000 recreation and park professionals and citizens, NRPA encourages the promotion of healthy lifestyles, conservation initiatives and equitable access to parks and public space.

Helen Lamm awarded Boren Scholarship to study in China Helen Lamm of Florence, a sophomore at Wofford College, has been awarded a Boren Scholarship to spend the 2015-16 academic year studying in China.

Lamm will spend a year abroad honing her language skills and another year at Wofford completing her degree before joining the federal government in the area of national security.

Helen has a double major in Chinese and history.

“I’m getting to study the language and culture that I love, and I have a job lined up after college. I’m so grateful for this opportunity and for those who helped me along the way,” says Lamm.

While in China, Helen will be studying environmental protection through the C.V. Starr Middlebury School in Kunming for the first semester. During interim she will take the intensive language course in Beijing. Although plans for the second semester are still tentative, Lamm is planning to continue her environmental research or to complete an internship in either Kunming or Hangzhou.

“There are so many opportunities out there for people who study Chinese, but many go untapped,” she noted. “Dr. Li Qing Kinnison (Chinese) and Dr. John Farrenkoff (government) at Wofford, as well as my

HELEN LAMM AWARDED SCHOLARSHIP TO STUDY IN CHINA experience at Middlebury, opened my eyes to different options.”

Kinnison believes that Lamm was a strong candidate because of her work with the National Outdoor Leadership School as well as her diverse interests.

“Helen has such a wide range of interests and knowledge – she dances well, paints well, draws well, speaks well and asks tough questions – and she brings all of that with her to class,” says Kinnison. “She, like

Wofford Rhodes Scholar Rachel Woodlee ’13, wants to use her knowledge to build a bridge between China and the United States.”

As a senior in high school visiting Wofford, Lamm met Woodlee on campus.

“She is one of the reasons I came to Wofford,” she said. “I’m still inspired by her.”

The Wofford professors who wrote recommendations for Lamm believe she’s done her share of inspiring others as well during her two

years at Wofford.

“Every colleague who has taught her lights up when her name is mentioned and starts talking happily and excitedly about her,” says Dr. Amy Sweitzer, associate professor of English. “I think this is because Helen is not only exceptionally intelligent, but exceptionally delighted by the experience of sharing any insight or understanding…. Her intelligence is inseparable from a genuine kindness and striking humility, and her pleasure in learn-

ing and in sharing understanding is contagious."

Dr. Mark Byrnes, associate professor of history, tells a story of Lamm’s quick wit and flexibility during a Modern East Asia class.

“I was clumsily trying to make a point about Chinese characters,” says Byrnes, “and knowing of Helen’s Chinese language skills, I rather unfairly put her on the spot. It occurred to me that her knowledge was likely better than mine, so I asked her to go to the board and explain what I was trying to convey. She did a wonderful five minutes of teaching, completely without warning or preparation.

That’s Helen.”

Boren Awards provide U.S. undergraduate and graduate students with resources and encouragement to acquire language skills and experience in countries critical to the future security and stability of our nation. In exchange for funding, Boren Scholarships recipients agree to work in the federal government for a period of at least one year.

Fellows will live in 40 countries throughout Africa, Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America and the Middle East. They will study 37 different languages.

The most popular languages include Arabic, Mandarin,

Russian, Portuguese and Swahili.

“To continue to play a leadership role in the world, it is vital that America's future leaders have a deep understanding of the rest of the world,” says University of Oklahoma President David Boren, who as a U.S. senator was the principal author of the legislation that created the National Security Education Program (NSEP) and the scholarships and fellowships that bear his name.

“As we seek to lead through partnerships, understanding of other cultures and languages is absolutely essential.”

This year, the Institute of International Education, which administers the awards on behalf of NSEP, received 750 applications from undergraduate students for the Boren Scholarship and 171 were awarded; 385 graduate students applied for the Boren Fellowship and 101 were awarded.

Helen is the daughter of Jim and Beth Lamm of Florence. She attended Wilson High School and the Governor’s School for the Arts in Greenville.

Aquatic Center opens at Bethea DARLINGTON – The Bethea Baptist Retirement Community opened their new Aquatic Center with a dedication service in the Sidney Sutton Chapel on May 1. Built with funds raised by residents, staff, and friends of Bethea, this yearround, state of the art, indoor pool and spa is the first retirement community Aquatic Center in the Pee Dee area.

Bethea Executive Director Ben Spurling and many residents had a vision about this new addition to Bethea’s campus for many years before it became a reality. Spurling shared at the dedication service, “We received our first generous donation August 2013, more donations followed, in April 2014 we had our groundbreaking, and this morning we had our first water therapy class,” said Spurling.

This new aquatic center not only benefits the residents of Bethea, it is also available to the surrounding community by providing inpatient and outpatient aquatic therapy and water aerobic classes.

“This new Aquatic Center was never meant to be exclusive, rather inclusive for seniors throughout the Pee Dee,” said Spurling Ribbon cutting events for the Darlington and Florence Chambers of Commerce will be held on May 13. A community wide cookout and Aquatic Center tour are planned for May 28.

To make a reservation for the cookout, schedule a tour or for information about water therapy seminars, call Shane Bailey, 843-395-4402.

PHYSICS TEAM 1 – Ty McElveen, Brian Maistros and Tyler Howell.

Trinity Byrnes students build catapults At Trinity-Byrnes Collegiate School this spring, Ms. Bonnie Bosworth’s Honors Physics students were challenged to design and build a catapult capable of launching a melon 10 meters.

This project would count as the final exam, so this was an extremely important undertaking for the students.

Two three-person teams were successful in the mission.

An all-boys’ team consisted of Ty McElveen, a senior from Darlington; Brian Maistros, a junior from Florence, and Tyler Howell, also a junior from Florence. They designed their catapult and built it without the use of power tools.

The second team actually sent the

cantaloupes further than 10 meters and their catapult included a release mechanism.

The second team included Ashley Stokes, a senior from Hartsville; Erika Maliszewski, a junior from Florence; and Bryson Willis, also a junior from Florence.

Florence Christian School held its annual Children with Hair Loss Chapel on May 4, in the school gym.

The school donated over 333 inches of hair to the national organization. The elementary and high school students and parents watched as 17 young ladies and a mother had a minimum of 8 inches of hair cut.

Prior to the cutting, a video was shown that presented a life story of a young teen who is a benefactor of the hair given to the Children with Hair Loss organization. The national organization is non-profit and does not charge their recipients for the customized human hair replacement and care kit each recipient receives.

Other FCS participants were recognized who had recently cut their hair and gave it to be included in the school’s donation. Local stylists also contributed by including hair donations from their salons. Twelve local stylists, led by Barbie Lee from The Salon, donated their time to make the service project possible. They not only prepared the hair for the cutting, but then cut and styled each participants new look.

McLeod recognizes Nurses of the Year McLeod Regional Medical Center announces the 2015 Registered Nurse (RN), and Nursing Assistant of the Year Award recipients: Jessica Fowler, RN and Chiharu Teshima, Medical Surgical Technician. The winners were recognized during a special ceremony and McLeod celebration in conjunction with National Nurses Week.

“Being selected as a Nurse of the Year is a very honorable recognition,” said Tony Derrick, Chief Nursing Officer for McLeod Regional Medical Center. “These individuals are evidence-based leaders and they have ingrained themselves into making the patient’s experience better and into helping them get stronger.”

Jessica Fowler is a Registered Nurse in the Heart and Vascular Unit in the McLeod Tower. She began her career with McLeod in 2005. Fowler received her nursing education from Florence Darlington Technical College. She resides in Timmonsville.

“Jessica treats her patients and their families in a caring and respectful manner,” said Kathy Sims, Nursing Director. “The patients feel that she recognizes that

Intensive Care. Teshima received her training from the Professional Nursing Services in Marion. She has been employed with McLeod since July, 2003.

“Teshima is a very special lady,” said Sherrill Nielson, Nursing Director. “She worries about the patients and her peers. She spends extra time with patients and families. Teshima doesn’t just want them to get what they need she also wants them to feel cared for.”

“A McLeod nurse does not do what they do for the recognition; they do it for the patients,” said Derrick. “It’s truly an art that affects people in a positive way, and I think that shows through our nurses here. As the Chief Nursing Officer, I am so impressed with their quality work and daily dedication. I believe we have some of the best nurses in the world here at McLeod.”

West Rotary recognizes outstanding seniors

PAUL BARNES

Cooks For Christ to host chicken bog benefit May 21 Cooks for Christ will host a benefit for Paul Barnes of Florence on Thursday, May 21, at the West Florence Fire Station on Pine Needles Road.

The menu consists of chicken bog, green beans, slaw and bread.

Lunch will be served from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. and dinner will be served from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. A bake sale will be held all day. Plates are $7 each and lunch and dinner plates can be delivered for orders of seven plates or more. Make checks payable to Paul Barnes Benefit Donation Fund.

In July 2009, Paul was diagnosed with end-stage liver disease. The toxins have caused a rare condition called hepatic myelopathy that has caused some paralysis. In March, he went to the Mayo Clinic for follow up with their neurologists, and this diagnosis was confirmed.

A liver transplant may reverse some of the neurological damage and will definitely stop the progression so his physician at MUSC has placed him on the transplant list.

Cooks for Christ is raising funds to help defray the cost of the transplant, medications, and travel expenses.

For additional information, you may contact Beverly McKee at 843-2290348 or Cathy Barnes at 843-662-6714.

All Saints’ students explore education at DisneyWorld ORLANDO, FLA. – Students of All Saints’ Episcopal Day School used the Walt Disney World Resort as a classroom on May 5 and May 6, when they participated in the Disney Youth Education Series “Properties of Motions Physics Lab” at the Magic Kingdom Park and “Sustainable Practices in Wildlife Conservation” at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

In the “Properties of Motion Physics Lab” program, the students worked together to test potential and kinetic energy, centripetal force and vertical and lateral acceleration just as Disney attraction engineers do during the ride design process. The students also learned the inner working of their favorite attractions.

In “Sustainable Practices in Wildlife Conservation” students discovered how all people and animals are connected and how each uniquely responds to environmental challenges. The group ended their program by using their new knowledge to create an effective conservation action plan.

The Disney Youth Education Series allows students to see how the principles they are learning in the classroom are making exciting things happen every day at the Disney Parks. From physics to history, each unique program emphasizes the importance of team work and critical thinking skills while giving students a one-of-a-kind learning experience that blends the magic of Disney with key educational content.

Since its creation, thousands of students from all around the world have been inspired by the Disney Youth Education Series programs at both the Disneyland Resort in California and the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.

He is graduating in the top 5% of his class with a 3.8 GPA, and has participated in 1080 Robotics Club, Academic Challenge Team, National Honor Society, and the school’s Math Team. Not just an academic whiz, Arriaga was also on the football and tennis teams, and holds a part-time job to help his mother pay some of the household bills.

Volunteerism is a big part of Arriaga’s life. He assists at the Pamplico Boys & Girls Club,

especially tutoring some of the younger students to help them succeed academically. He has visited the local nursing home and helped with Club and community clean-ups.

A high school staff member also noted that he “donated blood to the American Red Cross at least three times while a student here at Hannah-Pamplico High. That means he potentially saved nine lives. Giving blood is a selfless, potentially life-saving act and Francisco participated without hesitation.”

Being named Youth of the Year is the highest honor a Boys & Girls Club member can receive.

As BGCA’s premier youth recognition program, Youth of the Year recognizes outstanding contributions to a member’s family, school, community and Boys & Girls Club, as well as overcoming personal challenges and obstacles. Youth of the Year encourages club members to reach their full potential by achieving academic success, leading healthy lifestyles and contributing to their communities. Each year’s honorees are living proof that great futures start at Boys & Girls Clubs.
