David Shannon Run
I
n 2012, the Charlotte community lost a wonderful soul in
David Shannon
. David was an all-around good hearted young man and was in his first year at The University of North Carolina Chapel Hill when he unexpectedly lost his life.
David was everything you would want your son to be; an outstanding scholar who was involved in multiple high school clubs
,
a three-sport varsity athlete at Myers Park High School
, and a Sunday school teacher, youth leader, and summer camp counselor at Carmel Baptist Church. David brightened the lives of everyone he met.
Please help us remember David and his family by participating in the
5th Annual David Shannon 5K and 1-mile Fun Run
at Myers Park High School on Dec. 17th
. There will be music, entertainment, food, and more. All proceeds will go to two scholarships created in David's name. Click

Dog Owners Can Help
MPHS Students with Disabilities
MPHS is home to a number of disabled students who are working on a course of study that will allow them to graduate with a high school diploma. The program provides students with disabilities tools to be successful in their post high school endeavors.
Teachers, Kristen Starnes and Kaitlyn Stoneburner, have worked with these students to develop a fundraiser that also allows them opportunities outside of the classroom. The students will be selling dog treats to staff and parents.
If you would like to receive dog treats monthly, please fill out the survey at this link. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Kaitlyn.
Thank you for your support in advance!
