Relay for Life TextBook Fundraiser Results

thanks everybody who donated to the R.E.T.R.O. Revolutionary Poets'
Relay for Life Textbook Buyback Fundraiser!!!! We got second in the amount of money raised (we got second by $.40), but we were awarded the Per Capita Prize of $200. RETRO raised the most considering the size of our team.

Thank you for raising money for Relay for Life and proving that small teams can still make a big difference!
