If you're in Cochran Saturday morning and need your car washed, you have two opportunities to pay someone else to do it as well as support local fundraising. Fierce Dancing Divas, a Bleckley-based competitive dance team, will be holding a car wash and bake sale at the Citizen's Bank from 9 am-1 pm. The UnAshamed youth group at House of Grace will have a car wash at the church from 9 am-noon. Proceeds benefit an upcoming trip to Wild Adventures.
