Fundraiser for MHCO golf cart outings
The Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio Service Group will hold a Chicken BBQ fundraiser on April 30 with proceeds will supporting the purchase of a 6-person golf cart.
Last year a golf cart was borrowed for a short time and residents thoroughly enjoyed the local outings. As a result, MHCO will create a golf cart outings program for residents and visiting family members. Outings will be designed by residents and MHCO team members to secure a wide variety of themes from outdoor art to nature and familiar Bluffton sites. The golf cart will cost around $19,000.
BBQ tickets will be $9.00 each and may be purchased thru April 19th. Meal will include ½ Chicken, Mac &Cheese, Green Beans, and Roll.
To purchase tickets, you can:
• Stop by the Mennonite Memorial Home office from 8:30 am-4:30 pm, M-F.
• Contact Service Group members of Emmanuel UCC, Ebenezer Mennonite, English Lutheran, First Mennonite, Grace Mennonite, St John Mennonite, St John’s UCC, and St Mary’s Catholic Church.
• Email Gloria at [email protected]
• Call/text 419-429-2621
Curbside meal pickup for ticket holders will be Saturday, April 30, from 4:00-6:00 p.m. at Bubba C BBQ, 158 N. Jackson St., Bluffton.
