Girls Sell Candy Bars, Boys Went On "Bottle-Drives!"

Money Making Schemes From GGWO:

This simply means that the boys were forced to roam the inner city streets by searching the dirty street corners themselves a few dozen times, or just simply going door to door. This meant asking old sickly people for their empty soda bottles, all this in the hopes, that just in case, they might not want to take the time and return the bottles themselves to get their deposit. If this were the case, we were told to then ask, "Could we please have them?" If they handed over their recyclables, we were in the money!

Going door to door with Nate was always fun...

...He always loved bottle drives, because they tended to have more than one meaning to him.

Even "The Tap dancing hemroid" enjoyed going on these jaunts of sticky joy.

GGWO Schools motto: "There is only free time for the wicked!" This means simply that you do for the Lord even when you're doing from the Lord, so even band class was used to promote promotions at the school/church.

Some times though the bottles weren't just handed over to us...oh no, many a time we had to hunt for them in the woods!
