As they have done for many years in the past, the New Bern High School Junior Civitan Club cooked and served the RCS Shelter Dinner on March 10, 2025. In addition, the Club collected 272 pounds of canned and dry food for the RCS Food Pantry.
Club members Zampar Mon, Vanessa Hernandez, Amy Kesendz, Daniel Gonzalez, as well as their advisor Laura Miller-McLemore, made the delivery. President Roy Leonard and the RCS Shelter Dinner Coordinators Jim and Maureen Comer were there to welcome the Juniors.
This project has become a steady mission for the Juniors in the month of March for many years. Sharing food with those less fortunate in the community is a valuable learning lesson for youngsters of high school age. It will hopefully lead to a lifetime of continued community service for others.
We are proud of the Junior Club members for all they accomplish in volunteer projects throughout their school year.
Thanks to Ms. Miller-McLemore for all the time and effort she puts into guiding this Club.
