Elementary students help a couple get the honeymoon they were denied 60 years ago because of racism

The "phenomenal" job Mercer County students did to help a couple have the honeymoon they were denied 60 years ago because they were black have been rewarded themselves. Classmates from Bear Tavern Elementary School in Hopewell Township and their families are being treated to a Poconos resort vacation all because of their efforts to right what they saw as wrong committed at a time when segregation was still the norm.
