Press Release
November 11, 2005
Jones Estate Cleanouts donated hundreds of dollars in tools to Mount Olive High School's award-winning Mount Olive Robotics Team. Kiwanian Dave Jones was so inspired by M.O.R.T.'s presentation to the Kiwanis Club of Mount Olive that he went out that same night and purchased a Kobalt 85-piece 3/8 in & 1/4 in drive and a Hitachi 5 in 130 mm reciprocating saw for the Team. When presenting the tools to the Team's captains, Dave and Tammy Jones also presented a check for $350.
