FESTIVAL RIDE TICKET BOOTH @ PALMERTON FESTIVAL- SEPT 8-9-10TH
The Concourse Club mans the ride ticket booth at the Palmerton Festival during the annual festival weekend. Money earned from this event goes directly to support the annual Movie in the Park, which was once again a smash hit this summer. If you're interested in signing up to help, please check out our online signup at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20F0444A5A829A3FE3-festival1#/. As of Tuesday, September 5th, volunteers are still needed.
ART & PHOTO SHOW- SEPT 9TH & 10TH
Silent Auction: Our annual Art & Photo Show is already underway with a Silent Auction of items available for bid at the Palmerton Library through September 7th. The auction will then continue at the Art & Photo Show at the Sacred Heart Church Hall in Palmerton. Proceeds from the Silent Auction will benefit the Bo Tkach Foundation.
Art & Photo Show: Artists will submit their works on Friday evening with judging to follow. On Saturday, the show will open to the public from 10 am - 7 pm. Sunday hours are 1 - 4 pm. A raffle drawing is available for entry; tickets were included with the materials sent to your home or can be purchased at the show.
Volunteers Needed: Volunteers are needed for a shift on Sunday from 12:45 - 3:00 pm. Please contact Carol Curcio if interested. Additionally, Carol has indicated that this will be her last year as the Art & Photo Show's Coordinator. If you are possibly interested in chairing this event next year, please contact Carol at 610.393.4625 or cacc@ptd.net. We're looking to train someone up to takeover next year so that there is a steady transfer of knowledge about the Art Show.
BASKET SPECTACULAR- SAT, OCT 7TH
Come on out and help us with our Annual Basket Spectacular on Saturday October 7th! It's all hands on deck for this blockbuster event that raises thousands of dollars each year to support our local non-profit organizations. The event is held at St John's Towamensing Lutheran Church from 10 am - 2:30 pm. Tickets were distributed to club members. We'd love if you could spread the word about our basket social. Signups are going around for baskets, kitchen help, kitchen donations, bake sale donations, bake sale assistance, and volunteers for the event throughout the day. For more information, contact Marci Lesko at 484.626.2116.
