It’s a BASH!
Old Forge Library Summer Raffle to be held on August 18th
The beauty of the Adirondacks will be on full display at the Old Forge Friends of the Library’s summer raffle event on Sunday, August 18 from 3-5 pm on the front lawn.
In support of the Library’s annual fundraising event, local merchants and artisans have donated dozens of items, including ADK clothing, photographs, jewelry, decore, and gift certificates from their restaurants and stores. Some items are in the raffle and others are door prizes. The perennial favorites of a sculpture from Joni Dyer and a chickadee by Bob Zimmerman are once again included in the raffle. Raffle tickets are on sale now at the Library with the items on display that you can win.
For the first time, the Library will include a silent auction, which can be bid on at the library all summer and on the day of the BASH. Items include a week’s stay in a Myrtle Beach, SC two-bedroom beachfront condo; a private chef preparing brunch for up to 16 friends in your own home; and a First Lake sailing adventure aboard a 22-foot sailboat for four guests.
Raffle tickets are available at the Library during regular hours or at the BASH. Buyers do not have to be present to win; however, the BASH promises to be a fun event, offering attendees hors d’oeuvres, wine and beer, and great door prizes. There is a 20$ suggested donation to attend the Bash.
