What is Galentine’s Day?? The Lunch Ladies of Mrs. Gerber’s lunch group celebrated their special holiday this week.

Galentine’s Day was first celebrated by the characters Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins in the TV show “Parks and Recreation.” Last year was the first year Galway’s Lunch Ladies celebrated. Waffles, chocolate cake, fruit, and fancy beverages such as sparkling grape juice and raspberry ginger ale were served.

“I loved it. It was fun. I wish lunch was longer because I wanted to stay there all day,” junior Leah Oughton commented.

Mackenzie Morse explained, “We listened to Beyonce, and had an overall good, fun time. Shout out to my gal pals!”
