Community support never stops amazing me in this little town!
The Trojan Den saw some amazing traffic tonight with two donations.
The first was an amazing donation from the employees at Southeastern Electric Cooperative, Inc. This amazing donation will go towards making a difference in the lives of Trojan students. Thank you to the employees who donated, Sean Jolley, Bob Kalda, Jayson Bogenreif, Noah Reichert, Derik Bialas.
The next donation was amazing birthday party kits made by Girl Scout Troop 71313. The troop put together party kits that contained cake mix, frosting, baloons, candles and more! Thank you for all you do.
The Dig Pink Trophy sure looks good in its new home! Over $3000 was raised to help support locals fighting Breast Cancer earlier this month with our annual Dig Pink match against Wagner. Thanks again to all who made this night a huge success!
