Amador County – Local business owners Jamie Wedge and Debbie Sullivan used a corporate parks and recreation grant from their parent company to help a local after school program, with a $1,000 dollar grant. Wedge, and her mother, Sullivan, own and operate the local JCPenney Catalog Service, located inside their other business, Play It Again Sports, at 845 North Highway 49 and 88 in Jackson. Wedge, and her husband, Brandon, with two kids of their own, Madison and Austin, care about local kids. That is why they recently partnered with the retailer to donate to the Amador County Recreation Agency's Club Live After School Program. They gave $1,000 to the After School Program through the JCPenney Afterschool Fund. ACRA Executive Director Tracey Towner-Yep said: “On behalf of ACRA, I would like to thank Debbie and JCPenney for considering us a worthy cause.” Towner-Yep said: “In these trying economic times, it's even more important that we shop locally. Play It Again Sports and the JCPenney Catalog Service Center are the perfect places to do that.” The grant helped fund the Club Live After School program last school year at Detert Park in Jackson, which was held weekday afternoons and was attended by 6th, 7th and 8th grade students.
