CONWAY — “We’re Cougars, we help people,” a bunch of third-graders said as they left Conway Elementary School carrying food to the Conway Village Congregational Church (the Brown Church) as part of the school’s 19th annual food drive last Friday morning.
The Cougars, who delivered 1,067 pounds of food to the church’s food pantry, took a non-traditional path. Instead of zipping down the hill between the apple trees in the rear of the school, which was still covered by snow from earlier in the week, students and staff walked along the sidewalk to the front of the church. Many made that jaunt multiple times, and all the while with smiles on their faces.
