Every year, Stacy Crabb’s 6th grade students in Superior have a wonderful time shopping for kids in the area that could use some extra Christmas presents. 

Crabb fundraises internally and receives help from a few local businesses with a special donation this year from Trails West Bank and an anonymous resident bringing the total amount to $1,223.

The Superior pre-K class donated the most money from all of the classes in the school which earned them an ice cream party. The money is divided equally between four small groups of Crabb’s students plus four National Honors Society students to shop locally (Darlows and Mineral Pharmacy). 

The purchased gifts were delivered to the Superior Volunteer Fire Department for wrapping by volunteers and were delivered, along with food baskets, by the LIONS Club last Saturday.
