I want to try to avoid asking our vendors to donate yet again so we will not be having an item raffle this year. We will do a 50/50 raffle. Other than that, we'll be keeping it a simple day of wheeling, fun and friends (and GAS after eating the chilli) and helping out others in need for the Thanksgiving Holiday.
The Ozark Food Pantry was so excited last year to get all of our donations and money. I delivered at the end of a long day of them giving out food and their shelves were pretty bare. Let's make this an awesome MWJT event and help those less fortunate them ourselves.
