Fine Arts Family Fun Night fun!!!!
Jan. 31st was the night for our Fine Arts Family Fun Night at Central Elementary. It was our 1st one ever, and it went really well! We had over 100 people signed up to participate. Events of the evening included...dance (Samba) with Mr. Cletus Murphey, local ballroom dance and voice instructor; artistic doodle drawings with Mr. Ronn Moyers, local artist; drama charades with elementary afterschool drama coach Ms. Patsy Riley; and drama movement games with elementary fine arts teacher Ms. Beth Johnson. The night was one of excitement, energy, and fun for all - even a little snowstorm at the end to send us on our way home!!!
