Editor:

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the annual School Supply Drive for the Montezuma Cortez School District. Special thanks to Larry McGee for allowing Citizens State Bank of Cortez to be the drop off site for the supplies and to Monica Dibsie and Bethany Turner for their help in facilitating the drop off and sorting of supplies at the Bank.

Thanks also to Southwest Memorial Hospital for donating cases of paper, to the Swim Gals for backpacks, to members of St. Barnabas Church, to other churches that helped in various ways and to all others who contributed more than 2000 items to help our students and teachers.

It’s never too late to help.

Schools need supplies throughout the year. You can drop them off at a school near you on any school day.
