The Students are currently accepting donations to help fund their trip. If you would like to help these Ambassadors with their travel stop in and see Craig Daily, Manager, First Bank at the corner of Jefferson and Second Streets in St. Charles (or call 947-1346). The students are also doing a Mobil Car Wash sale. They are selling the Mobil Super Touchless eight dollar car wash for a discounted price of only $5. If you have not tried the newly opened Mobil car wash on 5th street in St. Charles you need to try it. It is fantastic! The students appreciate any support.
