Students from the Clare High School Drone Club spent an evening helping Farwell Middle School SPARKS students take aerial photos of the forest at the Clare-Gladwin RESD. They also practiced a search-and-rescue operation, looking for staff members dressed as the Grinch! Students successfully found the Grinch, one human decoy, and four other decoys. Thanks to Nick Winter and Duncan Gervin for being such good sports and hiding in the woods, James Winkler from Clare HS for bringing his students and their drones, and to Rebecca Idzikowski from SPARKS and Joe Trommater from REMC 5 for putting the event together. #CGRESD #ourstory #SPARKS

The Clare-Gladwin CAN Council distributed 50 ham dinners today to Clare and Gladwin families for their Christmas meals. Santa also stopped by to wave, visit, and give children time to feel comfortable admiring him, sharing a wrapped book with each child to take home. It was an amazing day supporting our littlest community members. #CGRESD #ourstory
