BARS would like to
thank
BP
Carroll Independent Fuel
for their financial
support.
They recently
presented BARS with
a check for
$7500
Thank you BP
Carroll Independent Fuel
Carroll was lucky enough to meet the good
folks from Baltimore Adaptive Sports and
Recreation (BARS) in 2012.  With our BP
program, Fueling Communities, we were able
to donate $7,500.00 to the local Paralympic
sports club.  Pamela Lehnert, the principle at
BARS, insisted we attend their annual Ski
Mash this year to see some of the great things
they do with the donations.  It was amazing
and inspiring to see the human spirit at its
best.  All of the athletes had different stories
but shared a commonality of “never giving up”
and “living life to the fullest.”  This spirit was
never more appearent when you could see
empty wheelchairs piled up at the foot of the
mountain and just knowing that their owners
were on the slopes enjoying life.  We hope to
continue our newly formed relationship with
BARS and look forward to spending much
more time with these good people.
