Richwood Civic Center

By David

The Poinsette Contest that RABA is putting on this holiday season is now underway. So, if you come into our office for activities or information, stop by and get signed up for the Poinsette contest. We draw for the winner on Dec. 8.

You can now sign up for our Christmas Lights night on Dec. 7. Our trips fill up quickly, so we suggest you come in and sign up soon. The cost is $15 and due at time of sign up.

We are also doing our Christmas raffle again this year. Tickets are $10 each and you will have a chance to win one of the following: Flat screen TV valued at $500, a $250 gift card basket, or a local gift basket valued at $150. Tickets are available here at the office 235 Grove St. or find one of our board members (Nancy Wiley, Larry Nibert, Carola McMahan, Jamie Clark, Deb Wright, Blair Beeney, Linda McNamee, Reddy Brown, Ralph Schmelzer, and Brian Owens). Great way to support our center and a chance to win a valuable prize.

Have a great week.
