Cumblerland Crusaders

Michelin Newton's third grade class at Cumberland Elementary School is learning about news. They invited me to come speak to them Monday. I enjoyed meeting the children. They asked lots of good questions, including 'what if one of our cameras didn't work' or 'what if the power went out?'
These four students are among several who volunteered to be my news anchors for a pseudo newscast. Our top story was a visit from President-elect Barack Obama and $50,000 from the Governor to build a swimming pool at the school. The forecast called for snow. And, that's what they are hoping to see soon!
