Artists in the silent auction may work with Pat York on the percentage of proceeds to donate to Joan and the artist sets the minimum bid price. This way everyone benefits.
You are invited to come and/or to share this event on November 24th, 2013 widely! It is a fun-filled musical, chili-eatin, and good-causin event for Joan Listen (current Carbondale and former Cobden resident) who has MS and is confined to an electric wheelchair. Held at The Old Feed Store in Cobden from 2-5pm. Free Range Chicks will be performing as well as Loose Gravel. $10 donation at the door with all you can eat chili and dessert. There will be a silent auction as well. In the planning of the fundraiser, Joan secured a high-tech van and with an emergency loan, purchased it. The fundraiser is to help her pay off the $5000 emergency loan as well as raise money for the conversion so that she can drive. Joan is a giving volunteer in our community…lets show her that we can help her stay active and connected to family, friends and the community by helping her out with this van!!! Any questions on how you can get involved, or donate, you can reach me at my email, or 618-697-4414. If you would like to donate a dessert you can contact Nick Raino at 618-967-9755.
Thanks and please share.
