The Flat Rock Chapter of Tri-M, a musical Honor Society, recently spent money earned by members throughout the year to support local families in need. The group recently took a trip to Wal-Mart to spend the $3,350 they earned through after school sales of snacks. “We bought food and gift cards for 24 Flat Rock families in need,” said Tri-M director and orchestra teacher Kelly Gallman. Each group of kids and parents had a $60 budget to buy non-perishable food items for a family. Each group bought food for three families.
