Shopping News Photo by Donald Reese As many as 14 local schools participated in a special stadium lighting event to honor graduates and student athletes. Lights were turned on at 20:20 military time, which is 8:20 p.m. and were kept on for 20 minutes. A score of 20-20 represented this years’ class and fourth down and 19 represented COVID­19 being on its final down. Parents, family and graduates paraded around the respective campuses, honking horns, waving towels, ringing cowbells and making noise. Shown are two sets of friends who came out to the stadium lighting event at Ephrata High School and they are shown in front of the illuminated scoreboard. Shown in the photo, from left to right, are friends Madeline Eby and Alecia Hurst, and friends Julia Longenecker and Olivia Brendle.

Shown in the photo are LCBC volunteers unloading the cars dropping off donations, and three volunteers taking items to the respective charity collection areas inside the church.
