Dirty Cars Save Lives

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2011

While it may be fun to write something like “Spring Break 2011” or “Gulf Shores or bust” by drawing your fingers across your car’s dirty windows, I’m sure most will agree that having a clean car just makes us feel better.

Relay for Life Car Wash, American Cancer Society, Meyer Real Estate

Your dirty car + discount car wash + a good tip for drying & vacuuming = funding for Relay for Life.

So we’re offering you an opportunity to not only feel good about your clean car, but to feel great about helping raise money for Relay for Life at the same time. We’ll even toss in some elbow grease! Here’s how it works:

– Come to Meyer Real Estate to purchase a ticket for the Ultimate Car Wash Package, good at Pinnacle Car Wash in Gulf Shores.

– Pay only $10.95 for a $12.95 value. A portion of that price goes toward the American Cancer Society’s fundraising efforts.

– Take your car to be washed any day through March 31, 2011, 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. But if you wash your vehicle on Saturday, March 26, between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., let the folks from Meyer Real Estate take care of the drying and vacuuming. That service is free—but please tip generously, as your tips will go toward cancer research and awareness.

Say goodbye to your dirty car and say hello to supporting a good cause!

Coins, Crafts and More

Friday, January 15th, 2010

Two local events this weekend promise a change of pace from the typical beach and/or winter activities. And after the recent cold spell, these offerings give you fun reasons to get out of the house and enjoy the warmer air.

Saturday morning, January 16, is the 7th Annual Yard and Craft Sale indoors at the Orange Beach Community Center, 27235 Canal Rd. Proceeds benefit American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life, so you’ll want to take advantage of one of the area’s largest yard sales to find bargains and to make a difference at the same time.

The sale begins at 7 a.m. and ends at noon, but get there early for the greatest selection of items. Sausage biscuits & gravy and coffee are available to keep your energy up as you wander through the aisles and booths. For more information, call 251-981-1524.

Saturday and Sunday, January 16 & 17, brings the 8th Annual Gold Coast Coin & Currency Show to Foley. The free admission encourages visitors of all ages, and everyone can learn many interesting tidbits by taking time to talk with the folks involved.

Located at 407 E. Laurel (Hwy. 98 east of Hwy. 59), the doors will be open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. Prizes will be awarded, so be sure to buy your raffle tickets. Call 251-943-1486 for further information.
