Every year towards the end of the school year the 6th graders at Maya's school get to go on a four day trip to Eagle Bluff Environmental Learning Center - kinda the same thing as Trails End was when I was 6th grade. The cost for each student is $277 so what the kids do to off-set this price is hold a Halloween party at school every year (The Boo Bash) to raise money.
In addition to the Boo Bash the kids raise money by selling True Stone Coffee. Normally these fund raising things are kind of a crock and we will have nothing to do with them, but this coffee is actually really good and cost about the same as other gourmet coffee. A one pound bag is $11.50 and Maya's class receives $4.35 of that. So if you like good coffee and would like to help out Maya and her class let her know and she'll get you set up.
