Mae's Real Stories

Today the members of the Pioneer High School bands were having a free car wash. Their friends and family promised them some number of dollars for each car they washed. People whose cars were washed could also give them money if they wanted to, so I gave them some money after they washed my car. This is a fund-raiser for big kids to do. Big kids also do the same things as Miriam, Alice, and Theo: they sell greeting cards and gift wrap, have walk-a-thons, and so on.

Evelyn was in the Pioneer High School band when she was in high school. She helped with some of their fund raisers, like selling hot dogs at Michigan football games. I can't remember if she washed cars. Bands always need money for taking trips and for buying new uniforms. That's why they hold fund raisers.
