Trash to Treasure sale to be held
The Trash to Treasure bag sale will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. today in Fisher Hall, where students will find plastic bags filled with leftover items from a weekend sale.
What was left from a Trash to Treasure's winter sale held this past weekend in Fisher Hall has been placed in bags and each bag will be sold for one dollar, Jonathan McVerry, a writer and editor at Penn State's marketing office, said.
The items in the bags come from student donations that have been collected since December.
Trash to Treasure, a collaboration between the Centre County United Way and Penn State, raised more than $55,000 for Centre County charities last year, according to the program's Web site.
Group to offer Singing Valentines
A cappella group, the Dreamers of Phi Mu Alpha, will be offering Singing Valentines this week. For $10, the group will sing to the person of your choice and present them a rose.
Those interested can sign up at the group's table in the HUB-Robeson Center today through Friday for remaining time-slots between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. until Saturday.
