We first told you about Coby Etchison’s Christmas Project here. He wanted to fill up 10 baskets with food for needy families here in Nelson by this past weekend. Well apparently Coby made his goal and then some!
His mom dropped us an update this morning:

WOW!!! Nelson County is a great place to live huh?? Coby collected soooo much
food. We were shooting for 10 baskets…we got 12 baskets…2 boxes(we ran out
of baskets) a couple of bags and over $80 in cash donations!!!(in only 7
days!!) We went to the dollar store with the cash and bought hats, gloves,
socks,coloring books, crayons and other small personal and gifty type stuff…
it was GREAT!! Coby is glad that his weekends are his again but it was a great
learning exp. for him and we have already talked about a spring project. We
will keep you posted…thanks Sandy
Congrats Coby, and thank you for doing a wonderful thing for the great folks living here in Nelson!
Merry Christmas!
