Westport Police Respond To Wrecker’s Wrestlers Car Wash
After the success of last year’s Car Wash fundraiser the Staples Wrestling Team returned last week to the Shell Gas Station and convenience market at 322 Post Road at the invitation of owner Raja Ali. Many of the team, and some freshmen members-to-be came ready to work.

Parking enforcement agent Angel Colon was on shift and passing by decided it would be a great opportunity to help out the boys and get his vehicle thoroughly cleaned.
Agent Colon watches as the Wreckers and a hard-working Wrecker Dad give his car the VIP treatment and he provided a generous contribution to the team for their efforts. Colon returned to his duties with one of the cleanest cars in town.

The boys worked as hard attracting “customers” as they did at washing the many vehicles who stopped by. Even a couple of parents tried to drive some traffic into the Shell station, albeit with a hastily created sign which was not quite up to the attention grabbing visuals the boys had created for the event.
The Staples Wrestling teams have had a proud history of community service worthy of their competitive athletic results. Our amazing community responded in kind with generous donations which the team will use for such things as scholarships, equipment and other necessities beyond what the school can provide. The event was by all measures an overwhelming success. The team wished to convey special thanks to all who came by!
