Veterans Memorial's precious GEMS
Placeholder Image
Members of Girls Engaged in Meaningful Service - the newest club at Veterans Memorial Middle School - spent Wednesday afternoon stuffing military care packages. Most the 120 members of GEMS packed boxes with toiletries, snacks, books, puzzles and pens and pencils. Club co-sponsors Whitney Jackson and Jessica Jones went to college together at Georgia College and State University and will request a list of students and alumni to send the packages to those currently serving in the military overseas.
