A combination cookout and swimming graduation party was given in honor of Samuel Knight who is a member of the Neshoba Central High School Class of 2022. The party was given by his grandparents, Bob and Lynn Holland Benson, at their spacious home.
The guests were family members and friends who came to join in the celebration of this epic milestone in his life. The swimming pool was a big hit with his younger friends, while others enjoyed visiting in the lovely backyard. The cookout food was so good with special cookies shaped like mortar boards, graduation robes, and others with his name and Congrats on them.
Sam will attend Mississippi State in the fall and plans to pursue a degree in Computer Engineering. Congratulations and Best Wishes!
