Byrneville Elementary Tops $800 Honor Flight Goal
November 25, 2009
Byrneville Elementary School has reached its goal of $800 for the Emerald Coast Honor Flight Program.
With a “Camo Day” fundraiser Tuesday that allowed students to dress in camouflage, the school added to previous fundraisers that included teachers dressing like Smurfs.
The Emerald Coast Honor Flight flies World War II veterans to Washington to see the War War II Memorial. It costs about $800 per veteran for the chartered flight.
