Thank you Mr. Bennett for gifting this beautiful painting to Park Middle School. It is appreciated! We will take excellent of it.
After careful consideration, we have decided to donate this painting to Park Middle School (original Woodrow Wilson High School). Jeremy Reeves, Park’s Athletic Director, plans to hang the picture in the walkway to the school’s new gymnasium. A placard with the name of the artist , Jack Cottle, will be added and the walkway will be convenient for the public to view it. Thank you for all the concern and affection. We are happy this beautiful painting is back “home”. P.S. We are still planning on making a donation to the Raleigh County Humane Society.
