Lambert and Reiff were editing their swim recap for Cougar Roundup. “[KUGR] is such a great environment for creativity but also to form amazing friends,” Lambert said. “KUGR has become like a home for me and I feel like I’ve gotten super close with so many other members.”](https://smnw.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ejohnson_KUGR_7-900x600.jpg)
Based on the turnout from last year, the goal was set for 9,000 cans and $6,000.
The school as a total collected 6,909 cans and $4,674.15.
StuCo sponsor Sarah Dent said that the Johnson County Christmas Bureau warned us not to be too disappointed if we came in below our goals. She is very proud we were able to contribute so much to help the community.
