Though Martin Smith was wearing a University of Georgia capwhile admitting he’s a passionate Bulldogs fan, this Hardin ValleyChurch of Christ children’s youth leader was helping elementaryschool-aged children enjoy a “Go Hawks” atmosphere Friday evening,Sept. 12.

Smith and other church youth leaders treated roughly 20 secondthrough fifth grade school-aged children, the church’s Grow LikeJesus group, to grilled hamburgers, hot dogs, chips, soft drinks andcookies.

The occasion, which included nine primary sponsors includingFood City, was Hardin Valley Academy Tailgate, an annual sponsor-driven munch-fest held prior to the Hawks’ varsity football game ver-sus South-Doyle.

“It’s just a fun time for the little ones that don’t ever get to do coolstuff like this,” said Smith, whose two children, Jonas, 10, and Jake,8, are part of the GLJ group.

Enjoying their first HVA tailgate experience, the church “hopes tocontinue it” as a GLJ celebration, Smith added.
