Last night was rather chilly here in Hutchinson, but students didn't mind! They bundled up in their wintery wear and headed out to collect canned food. In groups of two's or three's, the students, with a faculty member, went door-to-door asking for cans to give to the food shelf or to make thanksgiving baskets for social services. It was quite a success. Between all the students they collected 1,611 pounds of food! Despite the cold, wintery weather, students and teachers alike enjoyed the evening. Some made rhymes when requesting the canned food, others sang songs, or simply introduced themselves politely. Either way, students came back smiling with a story to tell.
