Culvers Share Night April 9th

11 Mar

Our local Culvers has been especially supportive of our fundraisers these past few years. They have provided frozen treats for our Fourth of July and Galena Country Fair events, enabling us to fulfill our mission to “serve the children of the world”.

In April they will support us again by hosting a Share night where proceeds from the evening’s sales will be donated right back to us. Whether you stop by to eat or volunteer to serve or clean up it’s a win-win for our club and Galena.
