The proceeds went to Gravette High School students participating in the Health Occupations of America, HOSA, national competition during June 24-26 in Orlando, FL.

In March the HOSA group went to state competitionin Hot Springs and won 35 medals, qualifying 46 students to go to nationals. A total of 88 students, sponsors and chaperones in the state are going, 47 of them from Gravette. “I’m so grateful for the community and their support of HOSA and these students,” said Angie Scott, sponsor of the Gravette High School HOSA group. “We couldn’t have done this without them.”
