PTHS NJROTC Participates in “Christmas on the River”
The following comes from a release issued by leaders of a Paducah, KY high school’s Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps program documenting a recent packing day at SCI’s Center for Maritime Education where young persons readied scarves, hats, and cards for holiday deliveries.
Twenty cadets of the Paducah Tilghman High School Navy Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (PTHS NJROTC) unit participated in “Christmas on the River” coordinated by the Seamen’s Church Institute at the Center for Maritime Education in downtown Paducah on Thursday, December 2.
The Paducah Tilghman NJROTC cadets helped pack boxes in an assembly line fashion with a goal of completing packages for 150 vessels but by the end of the night they had packed for 300 boats. The boxes will be delivered to the tow boats before they leave port so that the gifts may be opened by the crew on Christmas day.
