TURKEY RAFFLE AND FROZEN TURKEY BOWLING CONTEST NOVEMBER 17, 2012

Greetings!

Communities In Schools of Aurora is making preparations for our annual Turkey Raffle and Frozen Turkey Bowling Contest, to be held on Saturday, November 17, 2012.  Join us from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM at The Town Bar and Grill, 2681 E. New York Street, Aurora, IL, 60502 for a fun-filled afternoon.

Raffle tickets start at $1.00, with proceeds going to support this winters coat drive for local children.  Last year approximately 1,800 coats were distributed in the area.  Also, anyone who brings a new or gently used winter coat, hat or pair of gloves for a child, will receive one (1) free raffle ticket.  A silent auction and a 50/50 cash drawing will also be held.

Mark, owner of The Town Bar and Grill, will donate 10% of all sales in the bar during the 2-5 PM time frame, back to CIS.  Help us help local students survive the Illinois winter with a new coat.

We have posted a clip of last years Turkey Bowl on You Tube.  To watch, click this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSumqI3fEO4.  After you view the video, you can “like” the video and then “share” it with others on your facebook page.

We hope you will make plans to join us for this worthy cause and bring your family and friends along!  Anyone interested in becoming an event sponsor or in donating a raffle prize, please contact Paul Klinger at pklinger@cisaurora.org or Lu Stefek at lstefek@cisaurora.org.

We look forward to seeing you on November 17th!  If you are not able to make it to the event and you still want to help us please consider making a donation on our secure donation link and know that your gift is going to a great cause!
