Lots of Turkeys for Turkey Day

By Kiki Martin

The DHS Band held its 3rd annual turkey drive on November 26th. Band members stood outside the main entrance of the high school from 7:00 - 7:40 am collecting turkeys as students and faculty dropped off them off curb-side. The band collected a total of 131 turkeys which will be donated to a soup kitchen.

“After everything the community has done for the DHS band, we feel it’s really important to give back,” senior Sandhya Avula said.

“As a group, band really values contributing to the community. Especially around the holidays, it’s important to give back to the community that had supported us. It’s a fun thing to do and even though it was a little chilly, it was worth it to help those families,” junior Allegra Molkenthin said.

“Turkeys galore baby. Topped the last two years,” senior Peter Traver said.
