Under the leadership of director Sara Hudson and a dedicated team of club officers, including President Draven Taylor, Vice President Kaylee Wathan, Secretary Mylee Bissey, and Historian Eli Walker, the Flora High School’s drama club has successfully organized the school’s tenth year of participating in the annual Halloween food drive. This year, 20 students took part in the community service event, where they collected donations from local homes while dressed in creative costumes. 

Reflecting on the past years of this event, club director Sara Hudson states, “Drama club will continue to do this service project and has no plans of stopping. I feel that it is a great opportunity for the students to do something for the goods of others.” 

Though they did not count the exact number of collected cans, Hudson explained, “The students collected cans, but also other food items such as boxed potatoes, pasta, and more. I think the important thing to remember is that any amount of donation is helpful for the Clay County Ministerial Food Pantry, which assists hundreds of households in the local community.” Looking ahead, the club is excited about future community service opportunities, including caroling and the spring production, Clue: The Musical.

The Drama Club’s Trick-or-Treating canned food drive was an impactful event that allowed students to contribute to the welfare of the Clay County community. Their dedication to service is not only commendable but also an inspiring example for the future of the club.
