Project Keep Them off the Streets
Project Keep Them Off The Streets (PKOTS) hosted their annual Game Day event at the Smyrna Community Center on Saturday. PKOTS mentors “at risk” students through graduation from high school. Participants included STING Inc, Faces, Lions Club, Austell Community Taskforce, Globe Insurance, Be Bold, Welcome To South Cobb and others. They had a great time learning from the other civic organizations, participants, Smyrna Police Dept and students. The food was delicious. The entertainment by the Mako Girls was fantastic.
