Vacation Bible School 2010 at PGPC kicked off with a bang, as Chef Pierre took the stage Monday night, thrilling kids of all ages. Chef Pierre, played by Chuck Moss, along with Eric Adcock, the VBS teacher, presented the Sacred Chow Food Court, which was the theme for this year's VBS. They were joined by several costumed teenagers, as well, including Savannah Copeland, who played Big Cheese; Christine Adcock, who played Chinese Takeout; and Matthew Hancock, who played Big Grape.
Vacation Bible School boasted many great activities for the children this year including learning about the parable of Jesus, live music and sing-a-longs led by the all star cast, lots of great food, exciting take home crafts created by the children, and lots of audience participation!

Deanna Hillman, and then the usual response of “Good morning, find a seat!” A ferocity of excitement could be felt from the youngest pre-schooler to the eldest senior. Why, you might
ask? The reason was the sheer fact that today they were headed to see the play A Christmas Carol at New Stage Theater in Jackson, Mississippi, and then were going to be dismissed for two whole weeks for Christmas Holidays.
Upon their arrival at New Stage Theater, they were greeted by numerous other schools of all sizes, grades, and pupils. The students began filing off the bus, each impatiently hoping Sis. Libby Putnam’s poor little pre-school class would go a tad bit swifter. When finally seated in the theater, questions could be heard like, “Who is going to be Scrooge?” “How are they going to present the Ghost of Christmas Future?” Everyone could hardly contain themselves as anticipation swelled within them like a helium balloon.

PGCA kicked off its third nine weeks with a field trip to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at Little Theater in Meridian, Ms. Tired students ambled onto the bus Friday morning.

The contest became a worldwide mania, with people resorting to increasingly desperate and unscrupulous measures to find the tickets, and anyone who succeeded became front-page headline news and a worldwide celebrity.
