Walnut Grove Elementary Field of Dreams

The 2007 Field of Dreams donation drive kicked off Monday, September 17, at Walnut Grove Elementary School.  The donations from this fund-raising campaign will be used to complete the LCD project started in 2006.  This technology, outfitted in each classroom, allows all computer, cable, DVD, VHS and Internet images to be projected via the LCD projector onto 81 inch screens.  A suggested donation of $65 per student is greatly appreciated; however, any amount, whether more or less, will help WGES reach its goal.
