Iola Elementary School student Cayleigh Rutherford gets a ride in a slingshot driven by owner Bill Hobbs last week. Rutherford was the first IES student to read books about each of the 50 states and was rewarded with the ride. The “Read Across America” books were purchased with Project Bookshelf, a fundraising effort to buy new books for the library.
