'Sleigh Wash' this weekend in West Chicago

Wett Car Wash in West Chicago this weekend presents the "Santa Sleigh Wash," a socially distanced holiday drive-through event.

Before vehicles enter the company's Express Wash," a cast of costumed characters greet visitors in decorated grotto full of LED lights and other effects.

"Holiday gatherings will look a bit different this season, which is why we wanted to create a safe, family-friendly activity." said Wett Car Wash general manager Dave Leshinski in a statement.

The "Santa Sleigh Wash" is at 193 W. North Ave., West Chicago, and runs from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday through Sunday, Dec. 18-20. The cost is $20 per vehicle, and the proceeds go to benefit St. Charles-based Lazarus House, a nonprofit that helps local people experiencing homelessness and poverty.
