On December 13, the McDonald’s restaurant at 2401 63^rd St. in Downers Grove hosted a Family FUNdraising Night Out to benefit the Indian Trail School PTA.

Indian Trail teachers and staff volunteered to work 45-minute shifts -- greeting customers, taking meal orders, pouring soft drinks and serving up fries. In exchange, McDonald’s donated 20 percent of food purchases made in the restaurant or through the drive-through when the event flyer was presented.

Students enjoyed seeing the staff members having fun on their shifts while raising money for the school at the same time.
