Monster basket
being raffled for Child Advocacy
|
| April 5, 2011 |
A gift basket so big it had to be wheeled into
the back door of the courthouse Monday on a
handtruck is being raffled off to raise money
for Children's Advocacy in Boundary County.
The basket, on display through Thursday outside
the Victim's Services Office on the lower floor
of the county court house, will be traveling to
various locations throughout the community over
the next several days before someone gets to
take it home.
The wicker basket, big enough to serve as a
family laundry basket, is stuffed beyond full.
Inside is a blue stuffed bear, family movie
ticket, a certificate for a family pizza night,
a rug-hook craft kit, a checkers set with a
leather board, a fur blanket, a Farkle game,
mosaic crafts, a popcorn bowl complete with salt
and pepper shakers and microwave popcorn, two
cans of Pringles chips, four decks of playing
cards, a book cover, two puzzles, a Yahtzee
game, a set of Big Beast squirt guns, a jar of
assorted candy, a beverage dispenser with candy,
the DVD movies Pelican's Brief, Meet the
Parents, Garfield and The Green Mile, two bubble
sticks, a popcorn maker, two packages of
lemonade, a golf puzzle, a checkers and tic tac
toe kit, a green lounging pillow and a set of
family tickets to Silverwood.
In all, the basket is valued at $500, and
tickets are only $2 each or six for $10. Tickets
are available at the Liberty Gas Station on the
South Hill, the Boundary County Coalition for
Families, Chic n'Chop Restaurant, and at the
Victim's Services office. To find out more, call
Peggy, (208) 267-7334. |
