By Lisa D. Welsh TELEGRAM & GAZETTE STAFF
WORCESTER— The biblical story goes that Noah’s ark set sail saving Noah, his family and two of every kind of animal while the rest of the world was destroyed by a raging flood. Tonight, an ark of a different kind will embark on its maiden voyage with a group of high school students at the helm.
The Ark Foundation will present A Song of Hope, a concert to benefit Springfield Shriners Hospital, at 7 p.m. in the Holiday Inn’s Grand Ballroom, 500 Lincoln St. The concert features young people singing songs of hope and inspiration.
Zachary Dyer, a student at St. John’s High School, established the Ark Foundation after reading “Welcome to the Ark,” a book that follows four kids who bond over their concern for the Earth’s future.
