In all, 217 coats were gathered from LLCA s three campuses, doubling the school s goal. Courtesy Photo A simple drive with a cute theme had an awesome outcome for Lindsay Lane Christian Academy seniors, as they were able to provide not 100 but more than 200 coats for area homeless this week. The 101 Dalmations -themed coat drive took place over the course of about two weeks at each of the three LLCA campuses after seniors learned of the need for coats and jackets in Limestone County. Headmaster Steve Murr mused the theme was chosen because dalmations and donations sound so similar, and the school decided to aim for 101 coats or jackets collected.
