The community members in attendance were given the opportunity to vote to determine which student organization’s “BIG idea” would receive a portion of the $10,000 in grant money. It seems that more than one idea won some of the prize money, but the distribution amounts were not made public.
The “Drop-Dead Gorgeous Drag Show” won a portion of the grant money and, while some parents seem okay with the event, per a Facebook discussion between members of the Whatcom Middle School Parent Teacher Student Association, others think it is entirely inappropriate for students to participate in and/or attend a drag show.
