More about the event:

The evening will be filled with fabulous French food, oysters, an open bar with French champagne and wine, local beer and SO MANY French and travel themed prizes!

Not only has Bigelow generously offered us their newly opened and fabulous new space for this event, but John McInnis of McInnis Auctioneers has offered his time to be our auctioneer. We hope you will join us!

Your support will help feed the many hungry people in our community. Sadly, numbers are on the rise and estimated at 1 in 5 children and 1 in 7 adults in Maine who go hungry daily.* This is sure to be an evening to remember while helping fill hungry bellies. What are you waiting for?
