Westerly fourth-graders create project for Bay's Relay For Life

Westerly students Meredith Garrity, Allison Sharpnack, Larrisa Strouse, Billy Ferry and Reilly Reynolds display their Relay For Life note cards.

Westerly School fourth-graders in Barbara Woodburn and MaryJo Mahall’s classroom have put their artistic talents to work. Under the guidance of art teacher Debbie Sanson, they have created beautiful note cards with the theme “Bay in Bloom.” The teachers are proud that last year’s class launched this idea using the theme of Bay’s Bicentennial and were able to donate over $300 to Relay For Life.

Packs of note cards will include four original student designs and will be sold for $5.00 beginning at the Westerly Carnival, March 11. They make a perfect hostess gift or to write a note to a special friend. Proceeds go to Bay’s Relay For Life campaign and the student artists know that they have a part in finding a cure for cancer.

Anyone interested in supporting these fourth-graders by purchasing cards may contact their teachers at 440-871-1322 or 440-871-4412.
