Joytime Diamond Jubilee Year

   Mr.Hodgen-resident "Grandfather" to decades of Joytime children was an important element of our school.Though mostly behind the scenes as head maintance man,bookkeeper,ect.He frequently came in to greet the children and give high fives and the children looked forward to his appearances!The graduating class of 2001,generously presented Joytime with a popcorn machine and Mr.Hodgen lovingly became known as "Mr. Popcorn Man" when he would put on the popcorn hat and apron.Mr. Hodgen was more than owner of Joytime,he was a beloved part of our school and still missed today!
