Churches Feed Lumberjacks

Throughout the football season various churches take turns providing a meal for the Warren Lumberjack Football team on Fridays prior to the game.  Now and again a private business or individual provides the meal, but usually it is a church.  For the first meal on August 29th, Central Missionary Baptist feed the team.  Last Friday, First United Methodist of Warren provided the meal.

The pregame meals give the team a chance bond with the community and keeps the kids together throughout the day leading to game time.  Coach Hembree has followed this policy since he became Head Coach 18 years ago.

Notice in the picture, Lumberjack great Tommy Larance, a member of First United Methodist, serving plates to the players.  Assisting him was Kip Kelly.  Several ladies of the church and Pastor Gary Harrison worked to prepare and serve the food.
