Food Drive

All right everyone, Amanda is right, we need to step up the participation in the food drive. I am not saying that each person should feel pressured to go out and collect 3000 cans, but I do think that everyone of us should try to come together and help our community. If we can get people out collecting in their neighborhood, in front of grocery stores, and from family and friends, we will be able to truly say that we did our part in getting into the Holliday spirit of helping others. That is the most important thing, to help the people around us. It doesn't have to be all about winning, however, if that is what it takes to motivate people, then get out there and strive to stay in first place. We are seniors now, and this is the last opportunity that we will be given to take part in the amazing experience of the Cascade High School food drive. Lets show the freshman how it is done, for it is up to us to set the example. If we don't bring in the incredible amounts of food that we have in the previous years, the underclassmen won't understand the vital importance of the food drive. We wouldn't want it to be a failure the year that we are seniors. This is going to be an especially difficult year, for many people have already donated to hurricane and tsunami victims this year. For some people, they would like to donate, but they have nothing left to give. For that reason alone, complete participation is imperative to success. We have to get the word out there and we have to collect food and money donations. This is an experience that we will never forget. That being said, I urge everyone in our class to find a way to contribute what they can.
