Members of the Jackson River Kiwanis Club braved heat and humidity on Aug. 6 by volunteering to spread mulch at Jeter-Watson Elementary School. Thanks to their work, the outdoor landscaping will have a fresh look when students return to school on Aug. 14. From left are Susan Knick, Pam Allen, Mandy Arritt, Valerie Humphreys, and John Reed. Before her retirement, Allen served students in the Highlands as a bus driver. Humphreys is a retired elementary school teacher. Arritt serves as a secretary at Jeter-Watson. (AHPS Photo)
