Looking for a nice night out? How about trying Tuesday, July 30 at the Texas Roadhouse during a fundraiser for the Penrickton School for the Blind?
The fundraiser is for several great causes, in fact. It marks the first Truman High School DECA Club fundraiser. According to Marketing Teacher and DECA Advisor Carly Lundgren-Barnard, the students chose the Penrickton Center to be the benefactor of the evening as a community service project. They will fundraise and promote for the center, then write a paper about the program to compete in during DECA competitions.
What's in it for you? During the 3:45-10:15 p.m. period July 30 at the Texas Roadhouse in Taylor, 10 percent off of your total bill will go directly to the fundraiser.
Texas Roadhouse is located at 14660 Pardee Road. Call ahead seating is offered by phoning (734) 374-5500.
This event is also tied into the ongoing "Christy's Legacy of Hope" campaign in Taylor. That campaign is dedicated to the memory of the late Christy Lynn DePriest Wright, a highly honored former Taylor student at Holland, Hoover and Truman, who passed away in 2010 from a rare form of cancer.
Legacy of Hope events target needy children around the world. We'll be getting into some upcoming campaign events in future blogs coming soon.
For the Texas Roadhouse Fundraiser, print out and present the attached coupons to your server at the restaurant. And enjoy yourself while getting a fine meal and supporting a great cause.
Way to go cougars! DECA has been wonderful for both our school and community! Keep up the awesome work :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you, Michelle. Those DECA kids did a standout job across the board this year, and are picking up right where they left off. Future leaders.
