Thanksgiving surprise

Thanksgiving came early last week for 75 Gocio Elementary School students when they received Thanksgiving meal packages from Out-of-Door Academy.

The annual partnership between the two schools allows for families to be surprised with all the fixings for a holiday meal. Each package came with traditional Thanksgiving foods, a bilingual cookbook, children’s toys and a Publix gift card, so families could purchase a ham or turkey.

ODA students delivered the packages Nov. 22.
