Bake Sale a Success!

The bake sale at the Open House was a resounding success! Thanks to each and every one of you for doing a part. With everyone's effort and Mrs. Frey's lead, we were able to pull it together in just a few short days. $259 and counting (the leftovers were taken to the Colton Staff room). If you left a tray or dish at the event, it is in Mrs. Frey's room, A3. Great job everyone!
