RSVP wrapped up another successful pen pal season with a party at the Webster City Middle School Friday morning, when pen pals got to meet for the first time after corresponding regularly during this school year.

After some time to get acquainted over refreshments, there was a lively game of Bingo for everyone in attendance. Winners got to choose from a variety of prizes.
