Have you wondered what it would be like to drive a school bus? We have just the event for you. The North Crawford School District will be hosting a "School Bus Test Drive Event". Any individual, 18 or older with a valid driver's license, is welcome to join us at the school on Wednesday, August 28th and drive a big yellow bus. The event will be held in the lower parking lot at the school from 4:00-7:00 p.m. Take a few laps around the parking lot, back the bus into a stall, and if you're lucky, you may even get to blow the air horn and turn on the flashing lights. The first 8 individuals to test drive a bus will receive a $25 gift card to either Campbell's One Stop in Soldiers Grove, or the Marketplace in Gays Mills. Please join us for this exciting event!! #TrojanPride
