The high school recently held a coin war to benefit the Gibson Area Food Pantry and raised approximately $250 with the seniors winning the 'war.' Mrs. Curry, our social worker who coordinated the event, presented a check to Bella Amburgey, student representative on the Food Pantry board and Mr. Ertel, president of the board. Particularly in times as this, the food pantry is doing a vital service for our community and beyond.
