Baseball Fundraiser benefits Families Advocating Autism Now (FAAN)
On Tuesday, April 17, the Crusader Baseball Team hosted the undefeated Eureka High Loggers to raise money for the local charity, Families Advocating Autism Now (FAAN). Admission and donations generated over a thousand dollars for the program. One of the founders of FAAN is Fatima (Harvin) Naylor, SB Alumni class of '97. The current president is Kaileigh (Williams) Klammes, SB Class of 2008. FAAN provides local Autistic youth with many opportunities such as swim lessons, sensory screenings of popular movies and training and resources for local educators. Senior Garrison (Honeycutt) Finck dominated on the mound and the Crusaders won the game 4-0..

May Your Ears Always Hang Low, Mrs. Knolin
St. Bernard’s has another angel watching over her students. Mrs. Robinson Knolin passed away on April 19th. Carol worked for 25 years at St. Bernard’s Elementary School as a teacher, a specialist, and an administrator. Her passion was reading and she gave the gift of reading to hundreds of her students. Her former students also fondly remember the many hours at the piano singing songs like "She'll be coming around the mountain" and "Do your ears hang low?" Her family requests that we each buy a book for a child in her memory. A gathering will be held on Saturday, May 12th at Red Lion in Eureka at 11am.
