Ryan Adams, a local 12-year-old, will again be selling hot chocolate this year to benefit area families in need. The sale will be Thursday, Dec. 22, starting at 7 a.m. in front of Seminole Wind on U.S. Highway 27 South. Last year, with the help of his cousin, 5-year-old Jewel Anvar, they raised more than $700 to help three families. This year, their goal is $1,000 to help four families.
