Students from Children's Meeting House Montessori School held a candy drive for U.S. troops stationed overseas to help boost morale and to make them feel appreciated this holiday season. The drive collected 300 pounds of candy for the Yellow Ribbon Support Center (YRSC) in Batavia, Ohio. After the delivery, the students were given an informative tour of the center by Keith Maupin and learned about scholarships the YRSC offers in memory of fallen soldiers and other work preformed by the center. The Yellow Ribbon Support Center, which was started in 2004, has sent almost seven thousand care packages to troops stationed overseas.
