The Public is cordially invited to a celebration; the Jamestown Kiwanis Club will be giving eight Jamestown Schools a Buddy Bench. When a student sits on the Buddy Bench, it’s a signal for other students to approach them. A Buddy Bench helps to eliminate loneliness and fosters friendship.
There are Buddy Benches all over the United States; however, this is the first time any community will receive eight Buddy Benches as a donation. The eight schools receiving a Buddy Bench are Gussner, Lincoln, Louis L’Amour, Roosevelt, Washington, Victory Lutheran, Hill Crest, and St. John’s Academy.
Please support our children and our schools by joining the Jamestown Kiwanis Club, Jamestown students, School principles, board members, Senator John Grabinger, Councilman Charlie Kourajian, and other government officials and the North Dakota Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 4 ( who helped assemble them and will be delivering them) in a brief ceremony at the Jamestown Middle School, 203 2nd Ave SE, Friday, May 8, at 10:30 am.
