NJROTC

 CAR WASH & BAKE SALE

By Nick Baltera

On April 18th, Sterling High School’s NJROTC held a car wash/bake sale fundraiser in front of the school from 10:00 am to 2:30 pm, with the fundraiser’s proceeds going towards multiple sclerosis. Between the two stations, the cadets rose over $560 in only four hours. About twenty-five cadets signed up to help and made the car wash run smoothly, moving cars through quickly. Each car took less than five minutes and left the school shining. One customer even said, “My truck went in brown from the mud and came out white as could be.” The baked goods were donated by cadets and parents, and were both homemade and bought. Both the baked goods and car wash had no set cost; it was up to the customer to choose their own donation amount. It’s nice to know that even with no set cost, a substantial amount was still raised. Overall it was a great day and a great success. The Navy Knights can’t wait to help again next year.
