Delicious home baked goodies sold quickly during the sale hours. The snack bar sold hotdogs, milk and muffins. Oh yes! They also sold coffee as an eye-opener to those late morning people who dragged themselves out of bed at the early hours of 7, 8 and 9 in, the morning. Healing plants and squash were sold at a low -price. And of course, since it's nearing Hallowe'en, pumpkins were hot items. As you must know, sales can't be made a success without the help of many people. "Help" was donated by many people in the forms . of sales articles, baking abilities, salesmanship and a lot of time and energy. Thanks to the parents, staff and students of E.W.P. who helped make the sale a tremendous success and earn over $1100. Perhaps in the future our sales will turn out just as great!
