Yup! They're Willing To Work!
We've had an amazing month of fundraising! We began at the end of April with a work day at Pine Lakes helping to clean up campsites for the season. A group of parents and skaters raked for an afternoon and made $115 in donations.
In May, we washed jeeps for Two Rivers Jeep Club. The skaters powerwashed mud encrusted jeeps, had a great time, and raised $551.60!
We held a Schwan's Truckload sale in May. Our orders broke the record for Saturday sales in Pittsfield, and we received a check for $212.78!
Some of our high school skaters organized a second work day at Pine Lakes this week. A small group of us weeded a large garden area and raised another $75!
In just over 30 days, we've raised over $950!
I am thrilled at the hard work and initiative of the youth skaters in working towards this project!
Upcoming events include monthly Schwan's truckload sales, a booth at Lincoln Days Civil War Reenactment, a booth at the fair in Griggsville, a second jeep wash in August, and the full festival circuit this fall.
We are about $6,000 away from building Phase 1 of the park. We're also searching for volunteer labor to prepare the site and pour the concrete slab. If you're able to help, let us know! With all our hard work and continued grant writing, we will achieve our goal!
