Winton collects cereal for local food bank, church market

The December character trait at Winton Elementary School is "generosity." The school has shown its generous nature in spades — or, in this case, 1,389 boxes of cereal. This was the third year for Winton's Cereal Box Drive, a campaign of generosity sprinkled with healthy competition to collect cereal for the Community Action Partnership Coeur d'Alene Food Bank and The Father’s Market at Heart of the City Church. "The students collect cereal boxes all month," Winton counselor Brianna Birdsall said Thursday morning.
