SOLD OUT FISH FRY FOR GHANA
We are excited to announce that the 10th Annual Fish Fry for Ghana was a sold-out event. The event sold over 300 tickets and the co-chairs, Karen Durocher and Ron Arkell continue to receive community donations.
Proceeds from this event will be used to drill a well in Tankuri, Ghana, purchase running shoes for the school children near Tony's Memorial Park and as a donation to a nearby orphanage.
Thank you to all those who supported this event, both through the purchase of tickets and by donating their time. We also have to thank our many generous sponsors for the success of this event.
We look forward to hosting the 11th annual event next year!
