Car wash raises $7,000 for Marines' Vegas trip
Service members and others help out in San Clemente to raise donations for troops from the 2nd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, which will return to Camp Pendleton from Afghanistan in April.
A car wash Jan. 28 outside San Clemente’s Walmart store raised $7,000 to help pay for a trip to Las Vegas for members of the city’s "adopted" 2nd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment after the unit arrives home to Camp Pendleton from Afghanistan in April.
Marines and other volunteers washed about 250 vehicles for donations, according to the San Clemente Marine Corps Support Group. There also were burgers, a bake sale and a surfboard raffle.
An anonymous donor pitched in $2,500 in matching funds to bring the total to $7,000, the group said.
