Teams Ready Themselves For ACT Armed Forces Day 150
The ACT Late Model Tour championship wars are settled among established race teams with the resources to lock horns against the northeast’s best for six grueling months each year. But the battles on the road to that championship are fought by the Saturday night short-trackers defending their home turf whenever the Tour rolls into their town.
Poland, ME (May 14, 2012)- On Saturday, May 19 from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., Poland Community School will host the first annual “Special Olympics Car Wash”- all in an effort to make 5 boy’s, and other RSU 16 children’s dreams, come true. And when we’re done washing your car in front of the school, we will give you a vinyl Autism Awareness Puzzle piece for your car.
For a donation towards your car being washed, participants will receive a car wash, a chance to sit in the #45 Late Model and an Autism Awareness vinyl puzzle piece. (All proceeds to benefit the RSU 16’s Special Olympics Teams).
Five of Poland Community School’s Life Skills students have a dream of winning gold medals at the Special Olympic State Meet in Orono, ME. J.T.
