2020 FALL SPAGHETTI SOCIAL
OCTOBER SOCIAL CANCELLED - TRUCK RAFFLE WILL HAPPEN OCT. 11TH
JMJ Auto donated this 2003 F150, so we are doing our best to sell raffle tickets in the community. Though our Fall Spaghetti Social has been cancelled, we will draw the winning ticket for the truck on October 11th. Tickets are $5.00 each and can be purchased wherever you see the truck, or click here for more ticket info. Thanks so much everyone for your support! Best, RFAN Board |
