Viewfinder: Budget Bin Takes Over Gym to Raise Scholarship Money

Lots of good deals are found, but kids' clothes are in greatest demand

This year's  sale at Parkside Elementary School was a great success.

Thousands of household items, clothes, and shoes were donated or consigned to raise money for scholarships.  Solon PTA volunteers did a fantastic job organizing items and keeping things up to speed.

In years past they were able to award more than 30 $1,000 scholarships to well-rounded Solon seniors who were graduating.
