YVC Car Wash


To raise money for Youth Volunteer Corps service projects, we decided to get together one morning and have a free car wash. The owner of Iceberg let us have it there, and it was a huge success. The car wash was free, but donations were accepted also. We were able to raise quite a bit for the YVC, and when it was over, Iceberg gave us free ice cream cones to beat the heat. Everyone had a great time raising money for the YVC.

Climb to Conquer Cancer







When 5Am rolls around, most people are usually in bed catching some Z's, but not our youth volunteers! They met up at the Red Mountain Spa in Ivins to help with the Climb to Conquer Cancer, a 6 mile hike to increase awareness and raise money to find a cure to cancer. Our volunteers helped set the event up, paint faces, give water to the hikers and even helped people on the rock climbing wall. The climb was a great event and we all had a great time helping out.

Hurricane Independence Day Celebration

Hurricane City hosted a city-wide celebration on July the 4th. Our YVC branch in Hurricane was excited to be invited to be involved. They manned about 20 game booths at the festivities and had a blast doing it. Many families came with their children and participated in the games. Prizes could be "purchased" with tickets won from playing the games. Serving the City that morning was a fun and fulfilling way to show our patriotism.
