The pews at Clarkston United Methodist Church filled with proud family and friends Thursday as caring young people from across the area were honored by the Clarkston area Youth Assistance group.
Every year, the group contacts area schools and service organizations asking for nominations of youth who volunteer time and talent to help make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate.
This year, 119 kids from elementary to high school age were recognized for their hard work and dedication as CAYA and other community leaders gathered together to say ‘thanks, kids!?
