Jessie's Blog: Car Wash Success!

Hi Everyone!

On Saturday, August 16, 2014, we held Lebanon County Special Olympics' 3rd Annual Benefit Car Wash.  Fox's Automotive, located at 29 Cumberland Street in Lebanon, sponsored this event.  They donated not only the usage of their facility, water and cleaning supplies, but also their time (on their day off!) and really cool light blue Lebanon County Special Olympics' tee shirts for all volunteers proclaiming our partnership for the 3rd Annual Benefit Car Wash!
Car Wash Preparation!

One of the things I was most impressed with was the fact that the Fox's owners and employees were actively engaged and worked side by side with the athletes and volunteers throughout the entire fundraising event!  Besides the car washing, we also had a plethora of other fundraising items for sale, including tee shirts, Sheetz booklets, and lunch items.  All in all, we raised $1002.00!!!  This is an amazing amount that will be very helpful for purchasing athlete uniforms!

Thank you so much to Fox's Automotive, as without their support, our 3rd Annual Benefit Car
Hard Workers!
Wash would not have been possible.  Also, a big thank you to community members for participating, athletes and volunteers for helping out, and our friends and family members who brought in multiple vehicles to be washed!  Thank you to Deb Tice and Joan Sechrist for organizing this great event.  Lebanon County Special Olympics' 3rd Annual Benefit Car Wash was a huge success thanks to all involved, and I hope that our 4th Annual Benefit Car Wash will be just as successful!


Sincerely,
