Chattahoochee Elementary hosted its annual Book Character Day on Friday November 4th, 2005. Each year the event, organized by Ms. Lisa Crowder, the school Reading Specialist, invites local officials and personalities to dress in character and read from their favorite books to elementary classes.

This year District 1 Commissioner Charles Laughinghouse and District 4 Commissioner Dave Richard were proud to represent the Forsyth Board of Commissioners. Commissioner Laughinghouse and his wife, Becky, dressed as the King of Hearts and Alice, delighted first grade classes with selections from Alice in Wonderland. Commissioner Richard, in disguise as Samuel Clemens, aka Mark Twain, entertained fifth grade classes with selections from the author’s short stories.
