Tips for track & cross country car washes
- Big rosters are your advantage: run short shifts so everyone takes a turn and nobody burns out in the heat.
- Cross country runs in the fall and track in the spring, so a summer car wash catches both teams between seasons.
- Say what the money is for: meet fees, spikes, an invitational trip or the state meet.
- Keep water and sunscreen at the table; distance runners will happily sprint towels and buckets, but keep them hydrated.

How charity car washes work
A team, school or nonprofit borrows a parking lot for a morning, sets out buckets and signs, and washes cars for a set price or a donation. The money goes straight to their cause β uniforms, trips, medical bills, animal rescue, you name it.
Most run on a Saturday between 9 AM and 3 PM, and many are cash-only, so bring a few bills. A $10β$20 donation is typical; tipping extra is always appreciated.
