RUSHVILLE —
What do you do before Thanksgiving? Well, you take a stretch limo to McDonald’s, of course!
This honor came because each of these students sold over 30 items for the RESE and RESW fundraiser.
Candles, warmers and cookies were just a few of the various items for purchase. Profits from these sales experts and the many other students who participated provide funds for field trips, class incentives and new playground equipment.
As a way of saying thank you for their hard work, 11 top participants were transported by stretch limo to McDonald’s for a celebration lunch. Since the trip was rather short, an extended jaunt downtown and around the courthouse seemed in order and gave a new meaning to being “out to lunch!”
