Fundraiser Boosts St. Clair Dive Team

The St. Clair County Dive Team’s annual “Ice Cream Saves Lives” fundraiser drew a large crowd Tuesday at the Milkhouse in Fort Gratiot. The event raised about $30,000 to help cover costs for vital training, equipment, and certifications that county funding doesn’t fully cover. Volunteers served ice cream to support the dive team, who respond 24/7 to emergencies like drownings and search-and-rescue missions across the county. This fundraise marked a record year, strengthening local efforts to keep the dive team ready to save lives.
