American Legion Auxiliary Unit 187 and The Joel Fund will receive the proceeds of the September 9 Quarter Frenzy and they are asking Wake Forest residents to join them. The event is held at 3:30 p.m. in the Mill Room of the Factory at 1839 South Main Street, Wake Forest.
Quarter Frenzy is a cross between a raffle, a home party, and a charity fundraiser. Members of the Auxiliary and local direct sales vendors raffle off new items for one to four quarters. Bring a roll or two of quarters and join in the fun. You could leave with valuable prizes. Due to gaming laws no one under 18 can be admitted.
Lynn Heinrich organizes the Quarter Frenzy and the vendors, and she allows a charity to participate each month. It is usually on the first Sunday of the month but it will be the second Monday in September because Labor Day.
In conjunction with the Quarter Frenzy, a food drive to benefit the USO will be held. Items needed by the USO are coffee K cups, individually packaged snacks (chips, cookies, crackers, beef jerky, etc.), disposable dinnerware (plates, cups, utensils), lip balm, chewing gum, and puzzle books. For each item donated you’ll be entered into a drawing with a chance to win a prize.
Quarter Frenzy wants local people to help make a difference in the lives of current and former military personnel and their families. For additional information contact the Auxiliary President, Debora Godfrey at 919-815-2759 or by email at unit187alaux@gmail.com
