Kiwanians, Key Club and Jr. Key Club Members ready to wash cars

The Kiwanis Club of the Central Adirondacks, the Key Club and Jr. Key Club of the Town of Webb School washed over 135 cars at their 12th Annual FREE Car Wash, Saturday, May 26 at the Calypso’s Cove parking lot in Old Forge. The combined Kiwanis Club and Key Club effort raised over $3,000 at the event.

Co-Chairmen Bob Teesdale and Mike Griffin were pleased to report that the fund raising event was a great success.

“Each year the car wash provides the funds for the basic operation of the Central Adirondack Kiwanis Club activities and we are pleased by the turnout of Kiwanians and Key Club and Jr. Key Club members and for their extra effort,” Griffin said.

The Kiwanis Club, Key Club and Jr. Key Club would like to thank the following for their continuing support:

The Noonan family at the Enchanted Forest/ Water Safari for the use of the Calypso’s Cove parking lot, the Rowe family at The Donut Shop in Eagle Bay, Doug Clark of the Old Forge Car Wash and NAPA for donation of car wash soap; Kinney Drug Store for bottled water, Pizza Hut at Calypso’s Cove, and the many sponsors and patrons who make this special fund raising event possible.

“We are especially thankful for the efforts of Key Club Advisor Diane Amos and special thanks to Diane and Bob Baker, long time chairman of the event, and their family for their efforts to help Kiwanis with this important fund raising event,” said Teesdale.

The 13th Annual Kiwanis FREE Car Wash is scheduled for Saturday, May 25, 2013.
