Food Drive

Spring

WASA helps people and organizations by filling in gaps where we can.  None are more important than the Westborough Food Pantry who help people survive hard times by providing a well-rounded array of foods for their weekly selection and offer, as well, some basic non-food items such as paper products and personal care products on a rotation basis.  It is inspirational for WASA to serve as an annual conduit for the Westborough community and receive thousands of pounds of food to support those in our community that are less fortunate. WASA works with local grocery stores Roche Brothers, Stop and Shop Speedway and Stop and Shop Lyman Street to ask patrons if they could pick up needed supplies.  Harvey's provides transportation and allows us to gather cash donations from their facility.

Turkey Shoot

WASA Turkey Shoot

The WASA Turkey Shoot is held annually on the Saturday evening before Thanksgiving. Have you ever spun a wheel and won a turkey? Then you haven't lived! On average 50 turkeys are won throughout the evening, plus there are tons of raffle prizes and fantastic entertainment.  Dance the night away with friends and do it all for a great cause - the kids of Westborough!

WASA Calendars

May-June

Most people agree that a Win-Win is the best scenario.  We do one better with our calendar raffle because it is a Win-Win-and (possibly) Win-again! Every June we run our Calendar Raffle Fund Raiser.  In the weeks leading up to June 1st WASA members sell entries for the fundraiser.  Each entry is added to the "hat" and we select a winner for each day of the month.  Best of all - the entry is returned to the hat and is eligible to Win-Win-and-Win-Again!

We do have internal bragging rights on who sells the most entries - so please join in, help us to help others and get a WASA member(s) closer to those bragging rights.

Ski Swap

December

WASA is proud to run the Annual Westborough Ski Swap.   It doesn't matter if you are outfitting a new family,  trying to keep up with growing kids or if you have equipment that could help out someone new.  All will get value from the Biggest and Best ski swap in the area.
