Heads and Tails was a coin tossing game in which participants put in $2.00 each to play.
They would either choose their head or their tail by placing their hands upon one
or the other prior to a coin toss. The coin was tossed until one person remained.

Janet Raymond was the winner of the Heads and Tails game. She won half of the money
collected to play the game, which she graciously donated to the Center.
