Working at the Car Wash....woooo

As a way of raising money for our trip, the fundraising team made us do a car wash!

And actually it was really quite FUN!

Everyone bought a bucket, sponge, some brought car shampoo (I did) and this weird cloth thing that i have no idea how to spell lol. 

A few days before the fund raising team sent out a poster/email to all of the staff at college to let them know about the car wash and we got 20 responses!! Thats a lot of staff and a lot of cars! The replies to the email sent gave us their details such as car number plate, what make/model, their name and details on where they are to collect the money.

We started at 9 and filled our buckets up with water and we started on our first cars! It was really exciting!! lol To make it fair we all worked in our groups such as Transport (Kristy and Megan), Fund raising (Steph, Hayley and Blaise) Admin (Lauren and Ross) Attraction Team (Me and Justine as Gemma couldnt make it) and finally accomodation team (Kaleigh and Lorna!) 

After doing about 5-7 cars each we finished washing cars about 2:30ish, and corrr washing cars is harder than it seems!  It soooooooooo exhausting but well worth it! We made a total of £137.45!!! which is AWESOME!! WOOO GO US!! 

All together we have raised £404, this covers all our accommodation expenses and our walking tour. As we still have £45 left over we have decided to give this to NSPCC charity :)as we said we would on our first fund raising activity. 

Now all thats left is to pack our suitcases and go go go woooo
