Photo caption: Westhampton Beach Middle School Student Council members recently raised $546 through a fundraiser whose proceeds will be used to purchase nonperishable goods for the council’s December food drive. To raise the funds, the students challenged every grade level to purchase as many “turkey feathers” as they could at a cost of 50 cents each. All feathers purchased are being displayed on a turkey image hanging in the school’s main hallway. Sixth graders won the contest by purchasing 480 feathers. They will be rewarded with an extended lunch period in December.
