Elmore County High School senior and Beta Club president Pierson Lett stands next to more than 35,000 plastic shopping bags ready to be transported to an organization in Auburn which will be made into sleeping mats for the homeless.

Elmore County senior and Beta Club president Pierson Lett never expected the community of Eclectic to come together the way it did in support of the club’s annual service project.

The club collected plastic bags to be shipped to an Auburn church’s outreach ministry which weaves the bags into sleeping mats for the homeless.
