COMMUNITY FUNDRAISER!!

PROCEEDS TO GO TO 3 JACKSON COUNTY BUSINESSES!!!

With the help of local business we have been able to organize a great event for May 23, 2020.

Every meal or Car wash donation will get the chance to nominate 1 Jackson County business that is being affected by COVID-19.

All proceeds raised from this event will go to support local businesses to help with the recovery efforts of COVID-19. We will randomly draw 3 businesses after the event is held.

With all the support we've had from Jackson County Businesses over the years, we feel this is the perfect opportunity to help give back.

PLEASE SHARE!!
