DCS Motors Supports
School EOP's
Valerie Newton
Elizabeththown, NC - For the
past two years DCS Motors has supported the Bladen
County Educational Office Professional's (EOP) with
their fundraising efforts. The Melvin family,
father Donnel and sons Corey and Sheldon, recently
donated the use of their large cooker grill and gas
tank for the EOP Potato Bar fundraiser.
The EOP organization sold baked potatoes with all
the fixings throughout the school district for $5.00
each with the money going into the state conference
fund. This is the first year the organization has
held a Potato Bar fundraiser to support State
Conference expenses. The EOP conducts
fundraisers like the potato bar, raffle ticket
sales, basket raffle, and many others throughout the
year to help the schools purchase classroom supplies
and to fund the Student Scholarship Fund. The group
awards each year a high school senior at each high
school a $500 financial scholarship for
post-secondary education. Students
interested in the EOP Scholarship award can submit
an application to the local EOP organization by May
15, 2012. Selected winners will be notified in June
during their high school awards program.
Applications can be picked up at the Bladen County
Board of Education office from an EOP Scholarship
Committee member.
