Michael Turner, and country music star, Brecken Miles, did an incredible job!  These two powerhouses shared their stories between songs and provided such a fascinating contrast between the bad choices that led Michael into gangs, and the good choices that led Brecken into the world of music.  Michael described how he turned his life around and now owns a successful, thriving business!  Brecken shared the inspiration for his own songs and it really reverberated in the hearts of the kids!  <\/p>\n<p>Glenn did a special activity with the kids to build a sense of unity and teamwork.  He got the kids to stand in a circle and hold hands while passing hula hoops along the chain, and then explained what it signified and what they had demonstrated: &#8220;Teamwork makes the dream work!&#8221; The kids really responded to our messages and everyone had good things to say.  Some students even came up and thanked us because they felt they really needed this!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; specialty=&#8221;off&#8221; next_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; prev_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.106&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Text &#8211;  PHOTOS&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|||on|||||&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;|700||on|||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;46px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;|700||on|||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;46px&#8221; header_font_size_tablet=&#8221;30px&#8221; header_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;30px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #00a2ad;\">EVENT <\/span>PHOTOS.<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;][et_pb_image _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Markesan-School-1.jpg&#8221; \/][et_pb_image _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Markesan-School-3.jpg&#8221; \/][et_pb_image _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Markesan-School-5.jpg&#8221; \/][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;][et_pb_image _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Markesan-School-2.jpg&#8221; \/][et_pb_image _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Markesan-School-4.jpg&#8221; \/][et_pb_image _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Markesan-School-6.jpg&#8221; \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.9&#8243; prev_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; next_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; global_module=&#8221;36589&#8243;][et_pb_row global_parent=&#8221;36589&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||27px|&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.66&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243;][et_pb_divider global_parent=&#8221;36589&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.92&#8243; color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; show_divider=&#8221;off&#8221; \/][et_pb_text global_parent=&#8221;36589&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; header_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><em>Special thanks to Ponyville for their donation to GAB<br \/> that helps support our outreach programs.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; fullwidth=&#8221;off&#8221; specialty=&#8221;off&#8221; prev_background_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243;][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_image _builder_version=&#8221;3.15&#8243; src=&#8221;http:\/\/gabnow.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Logo-Ponyville.jpg&#8221; \/][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had 2 amazing school assemblies for Markesan Middle School and High School!
