Summer School Program Donates Rescue Bears

Students from Windsor Elementary grades 1-6 donated several Rescue Bears to Rock Community Fire Protection District. The homemade bears were part of a summer program at Windsor called "The ABC’s of Community Service." The program was spearheaded by Mrs. Chamberlain and Mrs. Bowler, who are both teachers at Windsor Elementary and have a true giving spirit of community involvement with their students. The bears will be used by firefighters on emergency calls when children are involved. The bears give comfort to a child who may be distressed due to a tragedy such as a vehicle accident or fire. Donating these bears has a special meaning for one of the teachers. Mrs. Chamberlain stated she was involved in a vehicle accident with her children and when firefighters arrived, they not only provided life saving skills but gave each of her children a teddy bear to help comfort them. The children also collected blankets and other items to donate to families displaced by tragedy.
