Piedmont Church passed out more than $15,000, to local schools and through scholarships from proceeds of their annual Christmas at Piedmont event.
Principals from local schools, Piedmont Church members and sponsors were on hand Tuesday, February 3, 2016 to give back to the northeast Cobb community. “We just love to support our schools, they are such an important part of our community.” said Ike Reighard, Senior Pastor of Piedmont Church.
With the help from presenting sponsor, Superior Plumbing, 26 schools received donations and seven $500 scholarships were named after some great families who have made a huge impact in our community to Kell and Sprayberry High Schools. “My husband Roy and I are honored and humbled to have a scholarship named for us at Sprayberry high school.” said Barbara Stiglich, Facilities Coordinator at Piedmont Church. “We could never have imagined all the blessings we have received by simply serving in the community, we’ve enjoyed it every step of the way.”
A new scholarship was created this year named the Lester E. Crowell, Jr., Three-13 Salon, Spa & Boutique Cosmetology Scholarship for Sprayberry high school.
Christmas at Piedmont was held at Piedmont Church December 11, and 12, 2015. The two-day event featured more than 50 arts and crafts vendors as well as a huge kids zone including a petting zoo and a 40-foot snow tube slide provided by C&S Paving. All the kids activities were free and more than 25 schools and local dance troops performed as part of the free entertainment. All the proceeds from the event were funneled back in to the community and passed out at Piedmont Church at this special presentation.
