All 775 students and staff at Barren County Middle School received a free t-shirt this past Friday thanks in large part to the Parent Teacher Student Organization. 

Earlier this year volunteers from the Southside Baptist Church wrapped customized t-shirts, which were bought through the organization’s fundraising, that say “Stronger Together.”

Bunch said he was happy to help with the event and is glad to have made sure everyone got at least one Christmas gift during the holiday season.
