By
Jim Faust-
The Lynchburg Lions Club hosted its annual GOOD (Going On Or Defeated) program March 15 at the Lynchburg-Clay Elementary School.

The GOOD Program is presented each year to all fifth-grade students by Mr. Ron Derry. Mr. Derry is a former teacher and coach who went completely blind. Since he lost his sight, he has been presenting speeches and demonstrations to thousands of students. He stresses character, perseverance and integrity.

Ten students will receive GOOD shirts at the end of the school year. Winners will be selected by the school faculty based on how they fulfill the characteristics promoted by Mr. Derry.
