The Fayetteville

chapter of the Gold Wing Road Rider's Association motored to Clinton,

S.C. in its annual trek to help out a children's home.

Fourteen motorcycles

and two "four-wheelers" made the 420-mile round trip.

The Thornwell

Home and School for Children houses youths from Georgia, South Carolina

and Florida and is under the auspices of the Presbyterian Church, Synod

of South Atlantic.

It houses approximately

100 youths at any given time and they live is small cottages, attending

the school on the premises. Nearby is a 350-acre farm that is tended by

many of the students. It often takes first place at fairs with its Guernsey

cows.

Students who

are not reunited with family and complete high school on campus are guaranteed

free college if they choose to go. Approximately 80 percent of them decide

to take advantage of this offer.

Chapter P Fayetteville

invited Chapter P in South Carolina to meet them and altogether nearly

60 bikers were on hand to present the school with typical school supplies.

Stated director

of sponsorship Chandra Coleman, "What a windfall. I think we have

enough school supplies to carry us into the third quarter. And thanks

also for the g ood clothing.

"I think

every child on campus has come to look at all of the goodies."
