Richard Kane Elementary students and staff members recognized the one-year anniversary of the flood which damaged the school building on April 30 in a light-hearted manner. Pictured is Melba Henson, a pre-kindergarten assistant at Kane. In an event dubbed “Flood-A-Polooza,” the Cougars dressed up in their best flood gear as they looked back on the events of April 30, 2007. The flood occurred in the early-morning hours after a six-inch pipe burst beneath the building. The pipe fed the school's sprinkler system. A large-effort cleanup effort ensued and classes had to be relocated to three area churches – First Church of the Nazarene, Adams Blvd. Church of Christ and First Baptist Church – for nearly two weeks.
