A Yadkin County Schools End-of-Year Appreciation Event
For four years, the Shallow Ford Foundation (SFF), along with local organizations and churches, have come together to celebrate Yadkin County Schools (YCS) personnel at the annual "Pack the Park" end-of-year personnel appreciation event held at the Yadkin Family YMCA. The event features delicious food, a cornhole tournament, an attendance competition, live music, and door prizes. All YCS personnel are invited to the event and the school who has the most personnel present or "packs the park" wins a trophy (based on number of employees and number of students).
2024 was the best year yet. Nearly 400 school personnel enjoyed live music, BBQ, delicious side dishes, a cornhole tournament, and 22 door prizes gift baskets provided by many local businesses and volunteers! Local favorite NOTA (None of the Above) kept the mood lively with their unique bluegrass sound. Thank you to all the community partners for making this special, fun-filled day of gratitude for YCS teachers and staff possible!
