ASB students hosted a delicious dinner

On May 20 the Associated Student Body of Snohomish invited the senior citizens of the community to a delicious spaghetti dinner. It was planned, prepared and served by the students using their ASB fund and donations from local businesses.

We were entertained with music and dancers, followed by numerous door prizes.

It took a lot of work to organize this evening, and even though about 70 more people came than were expected, the young people took care of everyone in a very efficient manner.

Thanks again, Snohomish High.
