Banquet and auction
For a great meal and a great time, plan to attend the annual Friendship Banquet and Auction at St. Thomas’ Episcopal Church, Church and High streets, Saturday at 5 p.m. The yearly fundraiser has a St. Patrick’s Day theme this year with plenty of green on the tables, plus live and silent auction items and special prizes.
All proceeds benefit the St. Thomas’ Building and Maintenance Fund.
Tickets cost $15 per person and can be purchased at the door.
