- The students of Monmouth Middle School will be at historic Cumston Hall in Monmouth on Saturday, Dec. 1. Students will be collecting donations of nonperishables during this time, and all items collected will be donated to the Cottrell-Taylor Christmas fund. The fund began about 40 years ago in memory of former Monmouth principal Henry L. Cottrell and Robert Taylor, a Monmouth teacher. The Monmouth Middle School collected more than 3,000 items as well as cash donations to donate to the fund, which was able to help 65 families last year. The students would love to surpass 3,000 items this year. Donations can be dropped off from 9 a.m. to noon. Items that are needed include canned fruit and vegetables, dried pasta, stuffing mix, quick bread and cookie mixes, canned soup, macaroni and cheese, brownie mixes, gravy mixes, etc. For more information on Stuff the Bus, contact Monmouth Middle School at 933-9002. Pictured are some of Melissa Fortin’s seventh-grade students who are taking part in the event.
