Picking Up Trash for Cash!

This weekend a LARGE group of 7th graders and their friends and family members made the long trip out to Rainbow Valley to raise some money for the New York trip. Thanks to a generous donation from Mary Rose Wilcox, our students were able to raise $3000 toward the trip by picking up bottles, bags, tires and scraps from along the roadways. Outfitted in our stylish bright orange vests and armed with gloves and bags, we dug through bushes and brush to get every last bit of trash from around Rainbow Valley school. Afterwards we posed for a group shot (above) and then enjoyed a fabulous pizza lunch! Thanks to all the parents and students who made the long trip and helped pitch in for this HUGE fundraising success!
