Stow Students Help Seniors with Spring Cleaning

Members of high school student council volunteer at homes of Stow-area senior citizens

About 60 members of the Stow-Munroe Falls High School student council spent Tuesday afternoon helping area senior citizens with yard work.

Trudy Thomas was just one of those seniors who benefitted from Tuesday's student muscle.
