Dear Silverline Members & Parents,

Our first car wash fundraiser will be held Saturday, June 13th on the corner of 11400 S. and State Street (where the Albertson's used to be.) We will advertise it being from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., but we need the morning shift to arrive at 9:00 a.m. to set up and the afternoon shift to stay until 4:00 to clean up. If possible, we would like each drill team member and an adult to sign up for a shift by emailing me or calling me with the names and times you are able to work. You are welcome to work both shifts if you can. Here are the shifts:

Morning Shift: 9:00-10:00 Set-up*
10:00-12:30 Wash cars
12:30-1:00 Lunch

*Set-up involves hanging signs, putting up shade tent/ticket booth, stringing hoses, filling buckets with soap, water, & washing rag/sponge, reviewing or learning how to wash a car...

Afternoon Shift: 12:00-12:30 Lunch
12:30-3:00 Wash cars
3:00-4:00 Clean-up**

**Clean-up involves taking down signs & shade tent/ticket booth, gathering hoses & supplies and returning to owners, dumping & rinsing buckets, hosing down parking lot & throwing away trash, get money to coach...

Presale Tickets: At the garage sale this Saturday, June 6th, I will be handing out 10 presale car wash tickets and asking you to sell as many as you can until the date of the car wash. Please bring any unsold tickets and money collected to the car wash on the 13th.

Supplies: Joe Hendricks and Scott Mehmen have offered the use of their power washers, but we need the following items for washing cars:

hoses spray nozzles paper towels
car wash detergent bug & tar remover tire cleaner
car wash mitts, sponges, or rags for washing cars
shammies or towels for drying off cars
extra rags for cleaning tires & removing bugs & tar

It would also be great to have 2 shade tents. One for a ticket-taking booth and the other for drinks & snacks & lunch. We would also need portable/collapsible chairs and tables for the tents.

Donations Needed: I will tell you how much is needed after everyone has signed up.

Drinks: Bottled water in cooler with ice.
Gatorade in cooler with ice.

Snacks: Grapes
Granola bars

Lunch: Veggie tray
Bread or rolls
Deli meats
Sliced cheeses
Condiments: mustard, mayo

I sent out an e-mail to all of your Parents. Hopefully they received it:) I just want to also post it on the blog:) Please make sure that you and your parents read this:)

This hair is for Go For It Camp & BDT Camp right now. I am asking that
it is done like this every day of both camps:)

Here is the e-mail that was sent out:

I am laughing pretty hard that I am sending this to you:) I was just searching around the Internet and got to thinking about hair...random I know. I just wanted to let you and the girls know ahead of time how I would like their hair to be done for CAMP (yea...so soon)!! I am sure that you are all expert hair braiders:) I am not at all...hopefully I can get good at it, but as for right now I have nobody to practice on.

I have attached 2 pictures and a YouTube link (for those of you like me that can't braid...I am not sure if it will help, but I love that I can find ANYTHING on YouTube)

(Not in e-mail) The Picture that is at the bottom is how I would love it to look EXCEPT I want the part straight down the middle. No zig zag.

And now for the best part the YouTube video:) I hope that it helps. If not it will make for a very very good laugh!!
YouTube of How to Braid Hair

So basically this is what I want
1. Double French Braid
2. Part starting in the center (Straight)
3. The fun bun in the center
4. Slicked/Wet Hair
