Bunzey will travel to Serbia on December 13 with the Providence Baptist Church for Operation Christmas Child this year.

For nine days, Bunzey will hand out boxes full of gifts supplied by people all over the United States to hand out to the Serbian people.

“This is my first time going, I’m looking forward to making a difference in people’s lives, and not just benefitting myself [during Christmas],” said Bunzey.

The church is also making a stop in Vienna, Austria for dinner – an experience that the group will surely not forget any time soon.

Bunzey anticipates a tough workload ahead of him, as he will miss multiple weeks of school.

“I’m trying to get started on my work early, but I’ll have a lot of work over Christmas Break. It’s definitely worth it for getting to help the [Serbian] people though.”

Bunzey was also looking forward to one other aspect of his adventure. “I’ve heard the Serbian people love peanut butter but they can’t get enough there, so basically I’m loading up on the Jiff!”

Will Bennett is a remarkable staff writer who was recruited from his early days. In fact, before Bennett could even speak, the Mycenaean took serious interest in him. While many consider this practice to be unethical, the Leesville editors disagree. Alex Stewart claims that his contributions to the staff have been "Pullitzer Prize" worthy. In addition to his writing, Bennett enjoys animals, Freshberry Frozen Yogurt, Hip-hop music, and long walks on the beach. He can often be found on his seaside estate composing original music, writing moving poetry, and balling with old basketball greats like Larry Bird and Michael Jordan.
