Stanly County Chamber of Commerce will host its 15th Annual Reverse Raffle and Silent Auction Aug. 23.
To be held at Market Station in downtown Albemarle from 6-10 p.m., this event promises to be bigger and livelier than ever with a theme for the evening entitled “Get Out Your Beads, It’s Mardi Gras Time In Stanly County.”
Each raffle ticket admits two people with two chances to win cash. The last ticket drawn wins $3,000 and runners-up win $1,000 and $500. Five $100 Chamber Checks will be awarded throughout the evening and other drawings will take place during the event.
From “A Taste of Stanly County” and its variety of food samples to entertainment featuring music by Joy Almond and the band “Fat Cabbage,” from refreshments that include the specialty drink, “The Hurricane,” to a silent auction, reverse raffle and door prizes, there is something for everyone.
Tickets are $100 per couple and less than 300 will be sold.
To purchase tickets call the Chamber at (704) 982-8116 or visit the Chamber’s Web site at www.stanlychamber. org.
