Incognito Headlines Raise the Roof Fundraiser

Habitat for Humanity is holding a fundraiser at the Fillmore County Fairgrounds in Preston on Saturday, October 2, 2010. Incognito, the popular band based in Rochester, will be playing for your dancing and listening pleasure from 7:00 to 10:00 pm. Food and beverages will be available beginning at 5:00 pm. The Fillmore County Pork Producers and Fillmore County Cattlemen will be selling their famous sandwiches and other side dishes will be available for purchase as well. The Fillmore County Dairy Producers and Preston Servicemen’s Club will have beverages available for your enjoyment also.

This fundraiser is also the culmination of the summer long sale of raffle tickets for Habitat’s log playhouse. Raffle tickets are still available and you can see the playhouse at Preston Lumber in Preston. Tickets are $5.
In addition to announcing the winner, there will be live and silent auctions with many valuable items upon which you can bid. All proceeds go to support Habitat for Humanity. If you would like to donate something for the auctions, please contact Denise Nelson at 507 875 2524, Joy Johnson at 507 886 3656, or Mary Stream at 507 467 3457.

Community members and volunteers completed construction on the first Habitat home in Fillmore County in 2009. Construction is currently underway on a twin home in Rushford.

Tickets for the dance are $10 and are available at most of the banks in Fillmore County as well as at Harmony Foods, Preston Foods, and Rushford Foods. Matching funds are being provided by F & M Community Bank and Thrivent Financial. That means your contributions are worth even more for those families in Fillmore County who are in need of simple, decent, and affordable housing!
