Mini-Olympics at Indian Hill Elementary
Employees from Astellas Pharma Inc. in Deerfield volunteered Friday at Indian Hill Elementary School in Round Lake Heights and W.J. Murphy School in Round Lake Park, in Olympic-style games for the students.
It's the first "Changing Tomorrow Day" which complements the company's volunteer program, which encourages employees to use five paid workdays each year for community service.
