Dessert Auction To Benefit Veterans

October 25, 2013 By eastwickpress

On Saturday, November 2, at 1 pm, Voice of a Vet is sponsoring a Dessert Auction to help raise funds to support Veterans programs here in Hoosick Falls.
We have already received commitments of delectable desserts from some of your favorite local restaurants – the Falls Diner, Jean’s Place and the Big Moose Deli – and are waiting to hear from others. Plus, many folks have told us that they intend to bake their favorite dessert to support this worthy cause.
Items should be wrapped tightly and clearly labeled so there is no question as to what it is. Should you make cookies or bars, wrap them in packages of a dozen. Desserts should be delivered to 191 Main Street (formerly Patire’s) by noon on Saturday so folks have time to preview them. Ron Seifert will be our auctioneer.
On this same day, from 10 am to 3 pm, there will be a flea market, kids’ trivia and an adult trivia contest at noon. There will also be a clothing giveaway from 4 to 7 pm on Friday and all day Saturday.
Not a baker? Come on out anyway, have some fun and take home some goodies.
The event will be held rain or shine. For more information, to arrange dessert or clothing pick up or reserve a spot for the flea market, contact Gail at 817-7286.
