For the 4th year in a row, Franks Bobcat Services has sponsored their Annual 4th of July Event at the Moose Lodge to raise funds for the Pine Island Elementary School.
This year they presented a check to Principal Mike Galbreth and his staff, for $4524. Frank Valcarcel , owner of Franks Bobcat Services, was proud to support the Pine Island Elementary School once again through this event, and feels their work in education continues to have a profound impact on our island community.
"We’re proud to have this opportunity to give back to our community and support all of you, because you make a real difference” says Valcarcel. During this year’s event, free food was provided for over 400 islanders!
“A very special “Thank you” goes out to all the businesses, vendors and volunteers, that personally donated items for the raffle or donated their time to help with the event. Without local support, this event wouldn’t be possible.”
“We know the funds goes toward supplies needed in the classrooms and so much more. This is more than a donation—it's an investment, and we look forward to continuing this fundraiser each year.”
