CVHS Band Car Wash
A car wash fundraiser to benefit Crescenta Valley High School Instrumental Music Dept. takes place on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the CVHS parking lot at Community and Ramsdell avenues. Funds raised will go towards instruments and support of the school’s music program.

Not your “average high school” car wash, students will use pressure washers and will clean the exterior only. Tickets are $5 each and can be purchased in advance from a music student and at the car wash itself.

Each ticket includes two coupons: one for a free guacamole with the purchase of two entrees at Los Gringos Locos and the other for 10% off at Seoul BBQ.
