Friends of the
Parks Basket Raffle
The Friends of the Darke County Park District will once again run their
annual basket raffle this summer and culminate at Prairie Days in
September. Local clubs donated baskets full of goodies to raise
money for the Friends of the Parks. Baskets include one from the
Darke County Birders, containing bird seed, a bird feeder, bird house,
field guide and much more.
The Darke County Photo club donated a basket full of supplies including
a Nikon Coolpix Camera, photo printing certificate and much more.
The Old Thyme Gardeners basket contains gardening gloves, soap,
watering can, Martha Stewart items and more for your gardening
needs. The Darke County Canoe and Kayak Club donated a basket
that any outdoor enthusiast would be thrilled to win. The basket
features a dry bag, atlas, headlamp, walking stick and more.
New this year is a Kitchen-themed basket with cookbooks, kitchen
towels, coffee and mugs and a gift certificate to Kitchen Aid
Experience. Also available in the raffle is a quilt that was made
in the Darke County Parks’ Log House by pioneer volunteers.
All of the baskets are on display at the Nature Center at Shawnee
Prairie (4267 St. Rt. 502 West) and tickets are available for purchase
Monday through Saturday, from 9:00am to 5:00pm. Tickets are $1
each or 6 for $5 and all proceeds go to the Friends of the Darke County
Park District. The drawing will be held at Prairie Days on
Sunday, September 28th; you do not need to be present to win.
Help support the Friends of the Darke County Parks and win an awesome
basket full of goodies!
