On Monday, December 5, 2011, our Scully Oil team members volunteered their time for the 2nd year in a row to help make Christmas special for many of the children in this area.

There were 10 team members from Lyndon Station BP, Mauston Interstate BP, our home office and a couple of younger members, who enjoyed sharing time with other volunteers to help organize all the toys for families that need a little extra help.  A couple of our team members helped bring all the toys from the Mauston Library to the Armory, so that all the packaging of the gifts could begin.

This year Toys for Joy was able to provide toys to 182 families and 379 children and every family was able to go home with a turkey.

A special thanks to everyone who did the shopping for all these wonderful toys and to the boys and girls basketball teams who helped with all the heavy lifting.  When you think about all the people it takes to make this process work, it’s amazing!  And we all knew what needed to be done, so it was a complete success.

We all enjoyed helping with this worthy cause and can’t wait to come back next year to help again!!

Scully Oil Company, a BP Branded Marketer servicing BP stations throughout Juneau, Sauk and Columbia Counties, presented a BP Fueling Communities grant donation of $3,250 to the Family and Friends Cancer Foundation. The BP Fueling Communities program provides grants to local organizations that are nominated by BP’s Branded Marketers to support the communities in which they do business.  Fueling Communities gives back to local organizations that support health, education, youth, food and housing to spread charity and goodwill.

The Friends and Family Cancer Foundation is a non-profit organization that helps those diagnosed with cancer offset some of the cost associated with the treatment of this dreaded disease in the tri-county area.  In the past nine years the organization has distributed over $120,000.00 to the Juneau, Adams and Sauk counties.  The Cancer Foundation President Mrs. Jan Miller is looking forward to celebrating their 10 year anniversary next July.

If you would like to learn more about this organization please call (608) 415-3848 and speak with Ms. Kristi Whaley the Secretary, who can help you through the application process. 

 Thru the very generous donation of time and money team members from Mauston Interstate BP and the Camp Douglas BP walked together to raise over $270, a portion of which their customers donated at their stores, all in the spirit of curing this terrible disease.  According to Co-chair Kathy Marose this event raised $111,034 for the American Cancer Society, there were 32 teams on the track and over 600 Luminaries around the field.  Scully Oil would like to thank everyone involved with raising money and donating time to this very worthy cause.  

The 21^st annual Lyndon Station Parkfest hosted a very large crowd of people for the weekend long event.  The event hosted mini-tractor pulls, co-ed softball tournament and lots of music.  On Saturday the event started with a Kiddie Parade, then the regular parade with lots of entries and candy to be enjoyed by all.  There were lots of people on hand to enjoy the Water Barrel Fights, Fireman’s Chicken BBQ Dinner and the evening wrapped up with a great fireworks display.

 On Sunday July 10, 2011 members of the Camp Douglas BP walked the parade route and enjoyed the crowds of the New Lisbon area in one of the hottest days yet this summer, with temperature well in to the 90’s.  There was a great turn out for the parade even though we had rain just an hour before the start at 1:00 PM.  There was over 60 entries in the line up from bands to mini-tankers.  Fun was had by all.  Thanks for the walk City of New Lisbon!
