[006] ‘MTSU On the Record’ helps ACE Learning Center ‘Saddle Up’

MURFREESBORO — Helping children develop properly in their formative years is the topic of the next “MTSU On the Record” radio program.

Host Gina Logue’s interview with Christy Davis, director of the Ann Campbell Early Learning Center, will air from 5:30 to 6 p.m. Monday, July 18, and from 8 to 8:30 a.m. Sunday, July 24, on WMOT-FM (89.5 and www.wmot.org).

This year marks the 10^th anniversary of “Saddle Up!,” the center’s major annual fundraising event, which is slated for 5:30 to 8 p.m. Saturday, July 29, at Murphy Center.

“We’re going to make it family-friendly,” said Davis. “We’ll have a magician. Discovery Center will have animals. We’ll have puppet-making … science activities, a horse-grooming station … a giant coloring book.”

The ACE Learning Center, formerly known as Project HELP, gives young children with and without developmental delays a head start on life by helping them develop good motor skills, social abilities, cognitive abilities and communication skills.
