rojec P l a n o i s Divi

“On November 24th, 2014, North Crowley Key Club hosted their annual "Build-A-Bear" Social at the Ridgmar Mall Build-A-Bear. Many Key Clubs gathered to participate in making bears to donate to the children of Ronald McDonald House's Charity this holiday! “ -Daisy, North Crowley VP “With over 30 people attending, the social was a success. Many key clubs were able to gather and bond as we all decorated our bears with dresses, costumes and pretty ribbons. All the bears will be donated to the Ronald McDonald house for all the children during the holidays. Thank you SO much to all who attended, it would not have had such an amazing turn out without everyone." -Demi , North Crowley President "Boswell High School ( Division 1N) had a blast making their stuff animals and donating to the RMD" -Alisa Prachan, LTG 1N
