Thank You Cotter High School

This week, we would like to pay tribute to Caleb Shaw and Hudson Adams, two seniors from Cotter High School, who held a fundraiser at their school to benefit the animals at Have-A-Heart Pet Shelter. They collected 219 pounds of dog food, 143 pounds of cat food, 31 pounds of treats as well as toys, blankets, bandannas, and pee pads. When people speak disparagingly about the younger generation, they need to know there are still a lot of great, caring kids out there. A big, heartfelt “Thank you!” to Hudson and Caleb. You rock.
