End of the Year Pizza Party Run by WoodwardMUG

Thu, 28 May 2009 17:33:46 -0400

Our annual WoodwardMUG Computer Club Barbecue Party was such a big success, our school principal requested that we run another barbecue on the last day of classes, Thurs., May 28th. Due to the threat of thunder storms, the barbecue was changed to a pizza party. Students had pizza, with chips, ice cream novelties, and a drink. This computer department fundraiser cost $5 per person, but seniors and their six grade “little sisters” were our guests. Proceeds got us a little bit closer to our goal of purchasing Adobe Design Standard for our computer lab.
