LAFOLLETTE, TN (WLAF) - Campbell County High School Building Trades students are constructing a pavilion at Valley View Elementary School over the next few weeks. Once completed it will house four picnic tables. The idea for the pavilion came from school board member Jeffery Miller, who helped spearhead the project that will provide shade and a picnic and party area for the elementary school kids. According to Miller, he plans to approach the same local artist that painted the mural at the playground to do a mural on the gable of the pavilion as well.
