Slate River Candles Fundraiser

Support the Swim Team with Clean-Burning Luxury Candles.

Help the Bishop McDevitt Swimming & Diving program while giving the gift of beautiful, long-lasting candles.

Slate River Candles is based locally, in Mechanicsburg, PA. Their proprietary wax blend burns 2–3 times longer than standard candles. All candles are hand-poured and inspired by the peaceful family farm on the Slate River in Virginia. Candles are clean-burning and made with care.

The cement cylinders are individually hand-crafted and take 3 weeks from start to finish.

50% of the proceeds from every candle sold will be donated directly to the Bishop McDevitt Swimming & Diving program.
