FIREWORKS: Rights, but also responsibilities
There’s a major anniversary this year: Winton Elementary turned 100! Congratulations, Winton Wolves! As a proud ’99 graduate, I remember fond memories: the lupin lady, Mrs. Johnson’s special chorus, and a pack that was great, honest, and kind.
This week also brings to mind a lesson from Ms. Porter-Brown’s third grade class: Rights and Responsibilities. Ya see, we third graders learned that with rights come responsibilities. Now apply this to another anniversary — this country’s 250th, and the ‘rights’ we celebrate it with: grilling, cold ones, and fireworks. I love all three, especially the fireworks. I remember the first year my dad drove us south to the reservation to get mortar shells and bottle rockets. Revolutionary experience (pun intended)!
