Jarod entered a contest at school sponsered by the Orange Park Fire Department. The student in each grade who read the most minutes during a weeks time, won a ride to school in a Fire Truck! Jarod logged over 450 minutes (7 1/2 hours) of reading after his homework during the week and he was the winner for his 3rd grade class. Today was the big day! He received a special backpack full of fun stuff from the Fire Dept. and a tour of the Ladder Truck.
He was so excited! He was grinning from ear to ear the entire time!
Off they go.....
Jarod arriving at School. All of his 3rd grade class mates were lined up along the fence. Jarod arrived with lights flashing and horns blowing! All his friends cheered and clapped. He was so proud - and so was I!
This will be an event he will always remember! Way to go Jarod! We are proud of you!
