The car wash was an event for the youth to raise money to go the district youth camp in Parua Bay in the Northlands of New Zealand. We had several kids on the sides of the roads with cardboard signs promoting the event. We had a rotation of kids to wash the cars that can in as people who walked by would donate. It was all by donation. We were not looking for a certain amount but willing to do the same job no matter the amount given to us. At the end of the day we had washed over 35 cars and one bicycle. We made enough for three of our kids to go on a bus to the event and pay for gas for two vehicles and to pay for the use of the water.
It was a good day and the kids were happy they came. I had all the youth stay the night before with a game night and sleep so they would not need to rush to get to Church in the morning. Everything went well with God's blessings we made it to the youth camp safely.
