Robby Baker, a 2nd grader at Redwater Elementary won top honors in a READ-ATHON sponsored by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Last fall, Robby chose to participate in the READ-A-THON because he likes to read books and he likes to help people. Robby read 100 books and raised $500 for the MS Society. Instead of choosing a grand prize for himself, Robby chose to have a $200 donation made to his school in his name.
