Tickets will be available after the RRECA meeting Sat 8/23 at 10am and during the dinner Saturday night at the Civic Center AND during the HOT DOG SALE on Sunday, 8/31. $10 a ticket or $50 for an arms length. We will draw winners on Sunday, August 31st at 9pm at the Pavilion.

Playground Fund Raising

In our first RRECA meeting of the year, it was proposed that we build a new playground for all of our little people. We will be doing fundraising throughout the summer to cover the cost of this. So when you win that 50/50, maybe consider giving it back to the kids of the community. Buy some tickets for the Gift Baskets and help us achieve this goal. If you have an ideas on how to raise the money or know of a group that would perhaps donate, please reach out to Tracy Jackson or Tracy Thompson. We are working on an estimated cost and will have a fundraising thermometer on the bulletin board.
