I’m writing to express my gratitude to all the parents, students, and supporters of our recent car wash we had at Rhythms last weekend to benefit the ABIS PTA and our students. Altogether we had over 30 students, and numerous parents who either helped out washing cars, or brought car wash supplies to aid our cause.
I’d especially like to thank Rhythms of the Night once again for the use of their parking lot and water, Uncle Ted’s Pizzaria for donating lunch for all of our volunteers, and the Manville Public Works Department for allowing us to use their traffic cones to keep the car wash orderly, and ensure safety for our children. I ask that our community remember these local businesses and frequent their establishments for their non stop dedication to our community’s schools and our children.
And of course, last, but not least, thank you to everyone who came out to support us by having their car washed, dropping off a donation, and spreading the word for us.
We couldn’t have had such a big success without your commitment. And to all of our students who took their own personal time on and Saturday and volunteered, thank you, and be proud of your accomplishment last week.
It truly shows why Manville is such a great community with great children.
The writer is the president of the Alexander Batcho Intermediate School PTA.
