Rolland-Warner Student Council volunteers at Soup Kitchen

About 30 members of the Rolland-Warner Student Council are volunteering at the Soup Kitchen at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Lapeer.

The crew is working December 10 and 17th and again on January 7th to help out with the meal that's served to needy and homeless people in the Lapeer area.


The students also got to use their sorting skills to help organize canned goods, and when the meal was over, they washed the dishes.

The Soup Kitchen rotates each weekday between five local churches. The other Lapeer churches include First Presbyterian, Grace Episcopal, Trinity United Methodist and Church of Christ.

Sponsored by the Lapeer West Junior Student Council, the school will host a Spring Fashion Show at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 11. The first annual show will feature 20 senior couples in prom attire and local businesses will have displays with incentives and coupons.

The Lapeer West Jazz Band will perform. For the first time ever, the school will crown a Mr. Lapeer West. To enter for a chance to win that honor, sign up in the Counseling Office before Friday, February 12. First prize is $50!

Other events include raffles for prom tickets and prizes.

There also will be the chance to sell your old prom dress. Bring your slightly used dress to be displayed for potential buyers. Dresses will be tagged with the owner’s name, address and phone number along with the size and price. Cost to display a dress will be $5 each or $10 for three, with proceeds going to the student council. Dresses will be accepted for display from 5-6:30 p.m. the day of the fashion show. Dresses that do not sell will be available for pick-up at the end of the show.
