Projects Raise Money
At the Student Council
meeting on Wednesday, Oc
tober 31, plans for the*
thanksgiving Project were
finalized and the trip to the
Ronald McDonald House in
Durham to help with main
tenance was discussed.
The thanksgiving Project,
traditonaUy a Mr. Turkey
contest to raise money for
Thanksgiving turkeys for
members of Grimsley’s jemi-
torial staff, was in doubt t.Lig
year because the number of
custodians at Grimsley was
cut back and a cleaning
service was employed part-
time. The Council decided,
however, that there were
enough custodians to hold
the project.
Specified Council mem
bers will compete. Those
raising the most money wiU
be dubbed “Mr./Miss Tur
key,’’ Emd must dress in a
turkey costume all day the
Wednesday before Thanks
giving. This year’s “contes
tants’’ are Ken Anderson,
Glen Gorham, Devon Spaul

Sophs SeUCandles
The Sophomore Class will
conduct a fund raising ceim-
paign beginning November
16. They will be taking
orders for a variety of
candles which give year-
round enjoyment, including
special selections for the
holiday season.
The money received from
this campaign will be used
for Sophomore Class funds.
In order for them to reach
their goal, they need the
help of everyone at school
and in the community. Class
representatives feel this will
be an excellent opportunity
for students to do some
Christmas shopping early
and easily.
