About the Car Wash
We have been pre-selling tickets, at $5 a piece, for our Car Wash this Saturday, August 21st from 10a-3p. The money for the car wash will go into the Swimming & Diving accounts for the purposes of paying for a new scoreboard and for team travel. The Car Wash will be held at the East High Bragaw Entrance parking area. We will need swimmers and divers help set up at 9:30a and clean up afterward (probably around 3:30p).

Expectations
We are expecting all team members to be present through the entire Car Wash. Please notify Coach Cliff if there is there is any reason you can not stay for all or parts of the Car Wash.

What we need to make it happen.
I am looking for families to donate hoses, buckets, sponges, rags, towels, etc. Please mark your items so that we can get them back to you at the end of the Car Wash.
If there is anyone who can donate a pressure washer for the day, please contact Coach Cliff at 727-4117.
