This past Saturday the Ashworth and Gordon Central Tennis teams hosted a joint car show fundraiser. The event was a great success with over 40+ cars showing up and registering for the event. We had multiple students even win awards, such as Eli Temple, Bella and Zoey Hardin, and Cheyanne Wilson. The tennis teams plan to do this fundraiser again next year and would like to thank all who helped spread the word and to all the ones who showed up and participated as well.

School social workers supported Sources of Strength today by preparing hundreds of eggs for the students to find. GC students looked high and low and enjoyed the competition of finding a sweet treat!
