The Austin High baseball team is pictured receiving the Kiwanis sponsored “Jason Jackson Traveling Trophy” which is presented annually to the winner of the Austin vs Scottsburg baseball game. On a cool spring night, Austin retained the trophy by winning 12-4. Congratulations to the Eagles baseball team!
Members of the Kiwanis Family in Scott County came together to do a service project at CASA during Child Abuse Prevention Month. Scottsburg Kiwanis Club members Wes Clark, Guy Townsend and Don Cooper joined Austin High Key Club members Kansas Amos and Shelby Keith, Scottsburg High Key Club members Olivia Watson, Alyssa Bray, Riley Poole and Heaven Beswick, and Scottsburg Middle School Builders Club member Bella Cox to give up their Saturday morning and help CASA. The Kiwanis Family leveled some dirt in the yard and filled holes, pruned the roses and spread mulch in the flower beds. CASA, Court Appointed Special Advocates, volunteers serve as the voice for some of the neediest kids in our community. They serve well over 200 kids and work closely with the Department of Child Services and the Judicial System to ensure these kids are provided safe, nurturing homes.
The Scottsburg Kiwanis Club hosted a celebration for thirty-six third graders at Scottsburg Elementary School for making the BUG Honor Roll the second grading period. To make the BUG Honor Roll (Bring Up Grades) a student must improve at least one grade in at least on subject and not go down in any other subjects. BUG is a Kiwanis Service Leadership Program that provides incentives to students to improve their grades. BUG Honor Roll students receive a certificate with their name, subject(s) improved at a party which includes prizes and snacks and a BUG T-Shirt the first time they make the BUG Honor Roll. BUG Honor Roll students in Ms Beverly’s class are Julie Cato, Annie Davis, Leo Day, Abbi Grimm, Addison Henry, Elizabeth Hunt, Gavin Jones, Sophie Jorden, Gavin Lisanby, Wyatt Minton, Samuel Powers, Abby Rone, Jayden Rooks, Clinton Stice and Kiley Tungett. BUG Honor Roll students in Ms Reynolds class are Gavin Curley, Landon Head, Hannah Roy, Trevin Waters and Kailey Wilfong. BUG Honor Roll students from Ms Bagwell’s class are Sofia Deirth, Eli Moffatt, Brody Moon, Zach Kukuk, Gannon Mays, Trenton Sage, Caydence Teltow, Braysen Hopper, Bryson Madden, Dayton Osbon, Peyton Owens, Emily Rose, Amelia Tedrow, Trinity Ulery and Hunter Waggoner. BUG is made possible through the generous support of our Kiwanis members. Thanks to Corporate Member Austin Tri Hawk for sponsoring the BUG Program. Thanks to Corporate Member Hickory Creek for providing the cupcakes for the BUG Party. Congratulations to all these outstanding students.
