Mr. Morris's outdoor education class is seeking donations of plastic water, soda or Gatorade bottles w/ their caps (any size). The class will be engineering and constructing rafts out of the plastic bottles and will float the rafts (or sink them) on the Delaware River this June. If you'd like to help even more, please remove the labels from the bottles so the labels don't end up in the river. Bagged or boxed bottles can be brought to the school's main lobby. Thank you!
