We Cleaned Up on the Bottle Drive!!!

Well the three day massive bottle drive fundraiser is now over. Friday 7 youth and 6 parents put in over 3 hours of work. On Friday 4 parents and 1 youth sorted the remaining bottles at the liquor store for 2 hours. On Saturday 13 youth and 9 parents worked on collecting, sorting and returning bottles to both the bottle depot and the liquor store from 11 to 3:30. A long day!!

So how did we do? Each youth and parent was counted for each day they participated. Those who had to leave early got counted half... so each person who participated raised a different amount. But the total? 1694 dollars!

Thanks to Carmen at the Bottle Depot for your patience with us, and your williingness to open the depot for us. We couldn't have done it without you and your staff's help.

Thanks to the gals at the liquor store for their help and letting us sort bottles in their back room on Friday and Saturday.

Great work everyone! WE CLEANED UP!!!
