This year our school decided to have a different Thanksgiving activity instead of the Turkey Trot race. James was the most sad about this because the two fastest boys in his grade moved so he was excited about his chance of winning. Too many parents complained about the races so the principal felt it best to change it up this year. It was replaced with a food drive. I was the PTA board member over the my friend who was heading up the committee for the food drive. It was fun meeting up with her and the committee members throughout the week.
It was a huge success! 3,246 lbs of food were donated at the end of the week! These pictures show just two of the days from dropping food off. We had to take loads each day because there was so much food.
News 4 Utah was at the food bank doing a story one of the days. The minis and I were filmed moving the food from the car to the baskets.
