Jordan Farino, 14, far left, and Tia Batin, 14, second from left, watch to see how the logo just silkscreened by Natascha Ray, 13, far right, comes out while Rebecca Fuchs, 14, second from right, looks on. The Wilson Middle School students are part of a "Go Green" campaign to educate people about the number of plastic plastic bags used and the impact on the environment. The students will be selling these reusable shopping bags, bearing the "Go Green Yakima" and Wilson Middle School logo to encourage shoppers to stop using plastic shopping bags and also raise money to go to Seattle to meet Mayor Greg Nickels.
