Fundraiser Will Support Business Group, CV-S 'HQ' Program
CHERRY VALLEY—When it comes time to start preparing for the Cherry Valley Holiday Weekend—December 6-8 this year—among the many events planned is the Holiday Ticket Fundraiser. A tradition that went on for many years in the past, this popular fundraiser was revived three years ago in its current form. Businesses, artists, and individuals donate items, baskets, services, and gift certificates, which are then put on display for the weekend. People can purchase tickets and enter them next to the items they would like to win.
The Holiday Ticket Fundraiser benefits, in part, Historic Cherry Valley Businesses, which organizes the Holiday Weekend and the Memorial Day weekend “Spring into Summer Festival,” among other activities. Every year, the group chooses a service organization with which to split the proceeds. Most recently, raffle earnings have been shared with the Cherry Valley-Springfield Endowment Foundation for Educational Excellence and the Cherry Valley Food Pantry’s Backpack Program.
