SWIMSUIT DRIVE!!!!

We are hosting a swimsuit drive for Cole Arts and Science Academy’s Camp HERO, a free summer camp for upcoming 1^st through 8^th grade students in the surrounding community. Camp HERO is an educational summer camp focusing on the arts, leadership, technology and literacy. All youth will be able to participate in engaging activities, including a weekly trip to Curtis Park’s swimming pool. The pool requires proper swimwear; unfortunately, most of these students have ill-fitted suits or none at all.

We are asking the community to come together and donate swimwear and towels to benefit our youth in need. There will be a box located at Wash Perk through Sunday, June 6^th. We are asking for new swimwear that will fit children ages 7 through 14. One piece suits for girls and trunks with mesh linings for boys are preferable.

This summer opportunity may be the very thing that changes a child’s life. We thank you for being a part of making it happen!

AS AN ADDED BONUS, IF YOU DONATE A SWIMSUIT, YOU WILL RECEIVE A FREE BEVERAGE FROM WASH PERK!

RELAY FOR LIFE

WASH PERK TEAM for Relay for Life — to benefit The Amercian Cancer Society.

You can sign up online and we’ll do several fundraisers in next couple of months; raising funds should not be a concern; we just want peeps on our team. WP will provide Team Hats. The Relay is Friday July 23rd into the morning of the 24th at South High School. We’ll set up a tent, hang out, take turns on track, and of course provide great coffee:) for more info: www.washparkrelay.com
