Students donated new socks and received a raffle ticket for every pair donated. Each grade level held a raffle for a basket. All raffle tickets were collected and entered for a grand prize basket that included activities like - checkers, horseshoes, floating tubes, puzzles, movies, snacks and even a $25 gift card!
