Adair Countian beyond the river wants to send check to A-Team To ColumbiaMagazine.com: To this old ridgerunner who spent eight of his happiest years in high school, the incredible accomplishments of the Adair County A-Teams transcend comprehension - so much so that I am willing to open my closely-held purse strings to make a contribution to the travel fund. Without a doubt, there are others among the sizable contingent of CM readers who live a considerable distance from the auld sod of Adair who feel the same. I would request that CM, in each post concerning the A-Teams, provide a mailing address to where travel fund contributions may be sent by we Adair Countians who live beyond the river. Thanks, s/Jim Wonderful! We just happen to have the information needed to send all the money your closely-held purse can spare! Send checks payable to Adair County Academic Teams, to: Adair Co.
