EAST Night Out - Last Thursday

EAST Night Out is a night for students in EAST to share their projects with family and everyone in the community. We had over 300 people attend and each student presented a project or skill they have worked on this year! This year refreshments were also made by the students using a freeze dryer. This is a project the students are doing to increase fruits and vegetable intake for those who may not have enough at home. A big Thank you to all that attended and supported us this year!
