This afternoon the members of the Town Wide Kid Helpers met in The Nu Toy Store in Tarrytown.
Our agenda this month was to talk about and draft a letter to Army Sgt Brian Roussel, who is currently serving in Iraq. He is also a Sleepy Hollow Fire Fighter. We started off looking at the globe and seeing how far Iraq is from New York. We talked about how life is very different living in Iraq and so far away from his family and friends.
The children came up with some very thoughtful ideas which will be included in the letter to him. As a little extra project the children were each given a piece of sketch paper on which they can paint or draw a picture of Tarrytown/Sleepy Hollow to be included with the letter.
