Project Graduation seeks donations

The parents of the Danville High School 2011 graduating class are planning Project Graduation, a drug and alcohol-free celebration given in honor of the seniors. It is an opportunity for graduates to celebrate at a safe and sober event on the night of their graduation, June 1.
During the course of the evening and into the next morning, graduates will enjoy music, play games, win prizes and eat lots of goodies.
The huge success of DHS's Project Graduation has been due to the generous support of area businesses, individuals and organizations in the community. For more information or to make donations of cash or prizes, call Chris Will at (859) 236-8537.
