Did you buy a great costume for Halloween then have your event cancelled? Have the long dark days and winter cold got you hankering for something to do??  Come have fun and do something great for charity at the same time.

            Come join us on Saturday, February 18th for a Mardi Gras Dance Fundraiser with “Ya Know? That Band” at the Walpole Town Hall from 7:30 pm til the stroke of midnight when we all take our masks off and reveal our true identity.  Tickets are only $10 each in advance with the proceeds being split between Big Brothers/Big Sisters – Cheshire County and the Fall Mountain Food Shelf.  If you buy a ticket at the door, it will cost $13 unless you bring a can or dry good for the food shelf, then it’s only $10.  Snow date for the event is Saturday, March 3rd.

            The ticket price includes a donation to two great non-profits, great dance music from “Ya Know? That Band”, tasty snacks, non-alcoholic beverages and an entry for great door prizes.  Costumes are not required but encouraged.  It is a BYOB event and attendees must be 18 or older due to the anticipated presence of alcohol.  Dancing will be upstairs in the theatre with food and games available in the downstairs hall.  The event is being sponsored by SMART Power Sports in Keene, Affordably Elegant Cakes & Catering in North Walpole, C & S Wholesale and the Town of Walpole.  More sponsors are signing up everyday to offer their support and we’ll update that list soon.
