McTabs Program--Charitable Collection
The McTabs program consists of collecting beverage tabs to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House Charities. At Clearfield Area High School, the homeroom thats collects the most tabs at the end of each month receives a pizza party compliment of J.G. Food Warehouse and Fox's Pizza Den and Dominos Pizza. The project ran from November through February. One of our members, Clair Woodel, actually did this project as his Senior Graduation Project.
