The annual “Lift-A-Thon” hosted by the New Hampton Lettermen’s Club and Letterette’s is this Wednesday in the High School weight room.
The Club’s Dennis Pagel says students in grades 7 through 12 will be lifting to raise money for weight room improvements.
Pagel says each participant can bench press four times to establish their individual max weight, which will then be used to calculate how much money they will collect for those who pledge their financial support by the pound.
Pagel says flat amount donations are also welcome and students who lift have until March 30th to turn in their money raised.
