Fundraiser Breakfast A Success

To the Editor:

The annual Newtown Congregational Church/St Rose Workcamp Breakfast was held on March 13. One of the main objectives of this breakfast was to raise funds to help offset the expenses that it will take to send 60 teens and 12 chaperones to Bloomsburg, Penn.
