SCOOPING FOR A GOOD CAUSE ALUMNAE TREAT FRESHMAN TO BIG TIP
An evening shift at a part-time job turned into a sweet surprise for freshman Jay Trappier.
The Myrtle Beach resident started working at Scoops Ice Cream on the Grand Strand over the summer to earn money for college. At the counter sat a tip jar that displayed the logos of the college choices of his two co-workers.
“I thought maybe I should have my school in there, too,” Trappier said. “Sometimes, people bring in more tips when they see your school’s on there.”
Indeed, they did. While on their annual beach vacation, two members of the Fairest Flowers of 1973—Betty Creamer of Palm Springs, California, and Bonnie Farmer of Greenville—stopped by the shop for a cold treat. After learning Trappier would attend their beloved alma mater, the women knew what they had to do: stuff the tip jar.
