On Monday, May 13, Mary Hughes with the Montgomery Humane Society made a visit to the Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School St. Bede campus with exciting news. Sixth grade student Ricky Treloar had entered the Humane Society’s poster contest in honor of National Be Kind to Animals Week at the encouragement of his teacher Mrs. Lori Riggles. His poster was one of 160+ posters submitted in the contest. First, second, third and honorable mentions were given. Ricky was presented the prize for first place at a school assembly in the school cafeteria. Ricky’s parents Teresa and Greg Treloar along with his second grade sister Amy were also at the assembly with Ricky as his poster was displayed for the school and he received the $100 cash prize, and a medal for his poster. The poster will be framed and will hang in the Humane Society lobby.
