The store and the surrounding community redeemed a total of 22,425 box tops. Their local chapter, Chippewa Hills Future Farmers of America was presented with a $7,606.25 check. Included in that total is an additional $2,000 bonus for being one of the four chapters that submitted the most box tops, and the most improved chapter from last year’s fundraising.
