Night at the BOOseum!

On October 25, 2012, Mortar Board members volunteered at the Kearney Area Children's BOOseum! As part of this service project, members of Mortar Board helped with set up, assisted with games, handed out candy, and provided assistance to a variety of booths that were set up for the children to enjoy. Check out the pictures from this event below! Great job Mortar Board!
