GARDEN CLEANUP On March 5, the Georgia Academy Baseball Club, Woodstock High School Navy Junior ROTC, Cherokee High School Agriculture Club, SmileUp! Charitable Foundation volunteers, Cherokee County Master Gardener Susan Gum, and Mike and Rebekah Gibson of SEEd. LLC helped clean up the G. Cecil Pruett Community Center Family YMCA garden in Canton, as part of SmileUp!’s Garden Beautification Project. “The kids did amazing work, and they cleaned without complaint. If you give a young person a job to do, and tell them how to do it, they get it done,” SmileUp! Executive Director Tonya Riddick said. 34
