There is a reason that fundraisers like Car Washes still exist!  When done right, they make money!  It may seem like a long time until we get warm weather, but it is Spring and warm weather will come and stick around.  Start now planning your Car Wash.  There are a lot of groups in town that do these, so talk to your team, pick a date and most importantly.....find a location.  You are going to find the usual spots around town already booked if you wait to late.  Then, get the word out!  Send the information to the Relay website and have your fund raiser listed.  Make up some fliers and put them around town....create an event on Facebook and send it to people in town!   Find a spot, get the word out.....and wash some cars to help find a cure!!!

Fund raising opportunity....The Newtown Woman's Club is holding a "Clear the Clutter Tailgate Tag Sale".  For $25 your team can purchase a spot and you can sell your clutter and raise money for your team.  It is a win-win situation!  The Woman's Club has done all the work of securing the location and advertising the event....they make money for their good cause and your team makes money for a good cause!  The sale is happening on Saturday, April 30 from 8am - 4pm at the Newtown Middle School parking lot.  You need to make a reservation for your parking spot, where you can set up a table and SELL!!!  For reservations and any questions, give Anna Wiedemann a call at 203-426-1035.
