“It’s a blessing,” Jabari Davis said. “Any time you can give back and help kids get better with education and travel and promote reading and literacy and helping kids get the spark of interest about reading and taking that reading to another level is always a lot of fun.”
Dayne Davis, a Bluff City native, said he enjoyed visiting with youth in his hometown.
