Congratulations to Aubriauna Maybin. She attended the Columbia Fireflies game with her family this weekend after earning her free ticket. Aubriauna completed her reading challenge set by Mrs. Teresa Coleman, school librarian, in conjunction with the Columbia Fireflies reading program. The Fireflies offer this opportunity to schools to encourage students to read and have fun with their families. Great job, Aubriauna and a big thank you to the Columbia Fireflies for their support!
