The Vinton-Shellsburg Post Prom Committee earned $150 in profit during its football toss fund-raiser. V-S footbal fans purchased footballs for $1 each and had the chance to toss them into a garbage can during halftime. Several of the balls did land inside the container. One of those, Number 193, belonging to Taylor Spies, was chosen for the $50 prize.

Virginia Gay Hospital donated the footballs, helping the Post-Prom Committee to keep down the costs of this fund-raiser. The Committee plans other fund-raisers, including a pie sale, in the near future.
