“Our goal is to raise $600 as an SRT for those who can’t afford Christmas presents,” Doss said.

The club also plans to continue greeting new students to the school.

Eric Wiegand, Greyhound Connections member and junior, said that he is responsible for personally communicating with two new students.

“I especially love meeting new students from other countries,” he said. “I get to introduce them to American as well as Carmel culture.”
