Pie Anyone?

Builders Club hosted a fundraiser to help Gateway Animal Rescue.  Teachers volunteered to have students throw a pie at them when they donated a dollar.  The pies consisted of whipped cream in a coffee liner.  The proceeds were presented to members of Gateway Animal Rescue who were on hand with rescued animals.  Mrs. Marin, Truman's Builder's Club sponsor said the idea  for the activity came from a student member.
