The Avon Choir Department were busy bees on Wednesday, December 18th, making the rounds spreading Christmas cheer through music all around town. At 9 a.m. the 8th grade loaded a bus and made their way to three daycares in town. They started at Mellissa’s daycare, loving that some kids were plugging their ears, while others were jiving in their seats. Then they headed to Avon Pirate Prep, where all the kiddos sat so nicely and one cutie ended our song with an enthusiastic “YAY!!” One last stop went to Cindy Sassaman’s daycare. Most of the kiddos were excited for us to be there, minus a baby that wasn’t sure about our performance. The 8th grade headed back to class, but April kept the bus warm because soon after, the Avon High School Choir members loaded the bus to head to the Manor. There, they sang their Christmas songs they performed at their concert, and even added two birthday songs for two community members. They performed so well, bringing tears to a few people’s eyes. These community outreach experiences are so good for our students, and by seeing the smiles on the audience’s faces it is all so very well worth it. Everyone have a blessed Christmas season and thank you for allowing us to perform for you on this cold December day! Submitted by Autumn Schultz

When many people hear the term plastic surgery images of Hollywood stars trying to fight back the effects of aging come to mind. It is easy to assume that plastic surgeons just deal in vanity. However, that would minimize everything that these talented surgeons accomplish with their scalpels. The term “Plastic Surgery” comes from the Greek term “Plastikos” meaning “to shape or form.”
