Purchase lunch, dinner or BOTH at the West Liberty Subway location, and a portion of ALL sales go directly to the CF Foundation. May is CF Awareness Month and for the last 19 years, Principal Greg Johnson and Crystal Johnson, 4th grade teacher, have hosted fundraisers for CF research. Their efforts support a ‘path to a cure’ for people like their two daughters, Ava Johnson, 8th grade, and Addy Johnson, alumni. Come out next Tuesday, let Subway do the cooking and support a great cause! See you there!
