Sun Journal looks at Boys & Girls Club improvements thanks to Catherine Elliott '12

A Sun Journal story reports on the new gymnasium floor installed at the Boys & Girls Club of Auburn-Lewiston, paid for from the proceeds from a contest won by Catherine Elliott ’12 of Edina, Minn. She collected 4,679 used yogurt lids to win a $50,000 grant from Kaboom! and yogurt maker Stonyfield Farm. At Bates, Elliott posted fliers and placed collection boxes around campus, and Dining Services workers pitched in, collecting lids that came back to the dish room on trays. (View story)
