It was a beautiful, sunny October day last Sunday when civic education was at the center of a major fund raising activity for the “We the People” programs at both local high schools.  Top Golf was the location and a good crowd was on hand for golf, a silent auction and some food.

We the People is a competition among participating high schools to test the civic knowledge of students on the We the People teams.  Both Fishers and HSE High Schools have had trips to Washington DC in recent years, earning the opportunity to compete in the national finals.

Janet Chandler says the money raised will be used for travel expenses in out-of-town competition, books and research materials for the teams and other related items.  As of this writing, the total amount raised was not available, since the silent auction funds continue to come in.
