Morgan Welsch, a fifth-grader, gets a face full of water on a Slip 'N Slide during an afterschool party for the last day of classes at Coldwater Exempted Village Schools on Thursday. Coldwater firefighters also sprayed the kids with water. Elementary School Principal Molly Hay said the school used leftover grant money to help fund the afterschool party, which included participation from the village police, firefighters and ambulance personnel. Water balloons, sprinklers, an air balloon for jumping in and a water fight between school staff and police officers kept the students entertained for about two hours.
