COLUMBIA, S.C. — Members of the South Carolina Pest Control Association presented checks to the directors of Camp Kemo, Camp Courage and Camp Happy Days, which are camps dedicated to children with cancer. The checks were presented at the 2008 SPCA Winter Meeting, Feb. 12-14, 2008.
Local pest control associations compete throughout the year to raise the most money to donate to the camps. This past year (2007) was extremely successful thanks to innovative ideas such as a community clay shooting competition and a purse auction.
The fundraising efforts for 2007 resulted in three checks totaling $68,000 being presented at the SCPCA award luncheon on Feb. 13. In the past 10 years, the SPCA has donated $380,000 to these camps.
