Win A Car With Cougar Soccer
By David Gravely

The Pulaski County High School Cougar Soccer team has been working hard to raise money for their upcoming season, and in the process of that they have teamed up with the Shelor Motor Mile to raffle off a new car.

The Cougars, along with other teams from around the area, are selling tickets for $1 each. All money made from the ticket sales is to be used by the particular team selling the tickets. Also, anyone buying a car from Shelor can participate in their "Growing the Future" program. For each vehicle sold, the buyer can fill out a donation card, and the participating school will receive a $100 donation from Shelors as part of the program. The individual schools PTA/PTO organizations are distributing these cards. There are currently two schools from our county participating in this program, Pulaski County High School and Pulaski Middle School, and donation cards can be picked up from the main offices of these schools.

The official drawing will be held in the fall, right before the start of the new school year. The winner will get a new compact car donated by the Shelor Motor Mile. The dealership has also set up a scholarship fund, which awards $1000 scholarships to graduating seniors each year. Since the start of this program a decade ago, over $110,000 has been awarded to local youth.
