School clerk Shanna Cockrell said the event was planned, in part, as a celebration of the end of the school year and as an opportunity for family members, especially fathers, to participate in activities with their children. The activities included wrapping the May pole, kickball, apple bobbing, singing and dancing. (The Vicksburg Post/C. TODD SHERMAN)
