The Green Key Society at Preston Elementary School honored the West Harrison fire department on their 100th year anniversary earlier this month.
The fourth and fifth graders of this service-oriented organization presented the firefighters with a bucket full of Lifesavers candies and a "thank you" for all they have done for the community. As one student said, “we chose Lifesavers because they save so many lives.”

The members of the Green Key Society are actively involved in community outreach in Harrison whether it is focusing on seniors, children, veterans or the military. The students collected more than 60 boxes of cereal last spring for the Harrison Food Pantry and Grace Church. They write cards to senior citizens and soldiers especially around the holidays, create placemats for those eating Thanksgiving at Grace Church, and perform a program at Blythedale Children’s Hospital.
