Fundraiser for the Chalet of the Golden Fleece

G.L. Adi, a volunteer with the Chalet of the Golden Fleece, is holding a fundraiser for the museum.
“It is a place full of the rich history of this great town, but unfortunately, it has hit hard times because of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a Star Project for my school’s FCCLA club, I am holding a fundraiser for the Chalet. My goal is to raise $500.00 to donate to the Friends of the Chalet since they were unable to host their Wine Walk in 2020,” explains G.L.
