Back-to-school boost

17

Indian Lake-area residents headed to downtown Lakeview on Thursday, Aug. 24, for the Osgood Bank Fourth Thursday Food Truck Rally & Back-to-School event. And, once again, the Amvets Women’s Auxiliary Post #39 was there to raise money through walking tacos and bottles of water. Every penny they made will go toward scholarships for Indian Lake students. “It’s for whatever they need—books, tuition, etc.,” auxiliary member and volunteer Marsha Metcalfe said. This year, they raised over $200. Pictured, Metcalfe chats with Indian Lake Elementary School teacher Kristen Glink, left. In addition, event sponsor Osgood Bank handed out backpacks, then each vendor provided various supplies like Sharpies, notebooks and wipes. (EXAMINER PHOTO | SHARYN KOPF)
