The Tri Cities Optimist Club in Pasco-Richland-Kennewick, WA celebrated 500 fifth graders as part of the annual Crossing Guards Picnic on Tuesday, May 29. According to President Lareena Roberson it was the first time the club had been involved with the program, but it probably won't be the last.
For their part, the Optimist Club served a complimentary lunch to the throng of students. The police department and other community leaders saluted the children for their work. No matter the weather, the fifth grade crossing guards help their peers, and those older and younger, arrive to school safely and on time.
