Photo supplied.Ashburton College rowers will be washing cars and selling sausages this Saturday to raise funds to compete at the New Zealand Secondary Schools Rowing Regatta at Lake Karapiro in March.

The carwash runs from 10am until 4pm and will be held at the Pearson’s bus depot off West Street.

Signs will be out from the main road and rowers will be encouraging drivers to pull in for a wash.

Rowers will work in teams to wash and rinse cars, while others will be dispensing sausages that have generously been subsidised by Mike Hanson from Netherby Meats.

A car wash costs $10 and sausages are $2 each. Raffle tickets will also be sold on Saturday.
