Basket raffle for the upcoming Finley Fundraiser

Next Friday, November 18th, is the Casino trip for Finley's Fighters. If you live in the Connellsville/Pittsburgh area, please consider going on this amazing trip. Details are in the flier below. If you can't meet the bus in Connellsville, you would just pay us the $25 each and meet our buses at the entrance to the casino at 6:00. I have already got it OK'd by the casino about people joining us but not arriving on the bus and they said it would be fine. They would walk in with the rest of us where each of us will be given a players card that they load the $15 of slot money and the $5 food coupon on.

And it is light up night in Pittsburgh, which is a special bonus. Please consider coming on this trip.

I wanted you to see the wonderful basket of Colebrook Chocolates that we are going to raffle off. John and Susan Coleman were gracious enough to donate this basket to us for the trip. We are also going to do 50/50 tickets and break apart tickets on the bus ride going down to help wet your gambling appetites. We will have bottled water and chips for you to enjoy on the ride down and Nancy will be making her famous jello shots for everyone to enjoy. It is going to such a fun evening and we hope to make lots, and lots of money for the RDH12 fund. If you are still considering going along with us we do have a few seats left on both buses. We leave at 4:30 from Martins and 4:45 from County Market so let us know.

Here is the basket!
