The best treatment for
ADHD is a matter of debate.

daily life, and the latest treat

Y-Club collecting cans
The Middle School Y- Club
met last week. We discussed
our current School and
Community Projects. For our
School Project we voted to
help the Rebel Belle’s with
their fundraiser by assisting
with their helping efforts col
lect aluminum cans.
We would like to encourage
everyone to help with this
worthwhile cause by saving up
your aluminum cans for us.
You can email our advisors at
and if you have a stash of cans
that you would like for some
one to pick up from you. This
is a great way to help the Rebel
Belle’s and to be kind to our
environment.
For our Community Project
we are collecting used cell
phones. For every cell phone
that we collect the American
Red Cross will receive $1.00.
Used cell phones are not good
for our landfills and lots of
people have them sitting
around the house just taking up
space. If you have one laying
around — we would love to
have it.
We also discussed our
upcoming District Rally and
Junior Youth Assembly.
MISS YOUR PAPER?
We hope not, but things happen.
If you did not get your Wiregrass
Farmer, please call us at
