This week’s Vaden Extra Mile Award goes to the Police Department’s Movie Club. Beaufort police officers and many volunteers take 200 local children to the movies at The Plaza every Saturday. After the movie each week, different organizations do safety presentations for the group. It’s a fantastic way to keep kids busy and educated on summer Saturdays.
Sometimes your best isn’t enough. Sometimes you have to go the Extra Mile! If you know of a team, group, individual or organization that has gone the Extra Mile on the field or in the community, you can nominate them for the Vaden Extra Mile Award.
Once a month in Beaufort, the Vaden Family of Dealerships will award $500 to the group or individual that’s gone the extra mile. And they’ll be featured Fridays on the news at 6 p.m. and in The Island News.
So go the extra mile and send in your nominations today to theislandnews@gmail.com.
