SEMR helps kids "Start Out Right"

On Saturday, August 20, at Horizon Elementary School, SEMR members helped distribute over 550 backpacks to school children in the Casino Road area. Over the last several years SEMR has provided thousands of dollars to the "Start Out Right" organization as well as provided manpower and hundreds of balloons on distribution day each year. The event requires about $5,500 in support from local organizations such as SEMR and Fred Meyer.

Dan Leach coordinated the SEMR efforts and Fund Allocation Chairman Mark Kendziorek was on hand again to document the many happy faces of children who will have a better opportunity to "Start Out Right" this school year.
