George Washington Ambassador Visits Chelsea

The fifth grade classes of Chelsea, Oklahoma visited with the George Washington Ambassador on Wednesday.   The students’ teacher, Mr. Battles, had the small portrait of George Washington (that I had given him last fall) matted and framed and resting on a table easel.  As the students entered the room they gathered around the portrait and enthusiastically discussed our first President.  The school’s principal came in to listen to the presentation about the general.  I explained to her about the large, framed “painting” of Washington that any principal can request for their school.  She was so excited (and so was Mr. Battles) that I am sure the Chelsea “Green Dragons” will soon have a new iconic artwork in their hallways!
