'Night to Remember' aids CCS

SANDPOINT — It will be a “A Night to Remember” as area residents gather to help Community Cancer Services on Nov. 5. The annual fundraiser, which will be held at the Bonner County Fairgrounds, begins at 5:30 p.m.

The cost is $80 per peson or $1,200 to sponsor a table. The event includes a four-course dinner, with each course paired with wine from Coeur d’Alene Cellars, Small House, Clearwater Canyon and Pend d’Oreille Winery. In addition, there will be a wine pull, silent and dessert auctions as well as a live auction. New this year will be dancing following the live auction.

Proceeds from the annual fundraiser make up a large portion of the non-profit’s annual operating budget.

Community Cancer Services supports anyone in Bonner and Boundary counties with a cancer diagnosis regardless of their financial status. In addition to financial support with gas, groceries and medical expenses we also have a licensed clinical psychologist in the office two days a week for emotional support. CCS also supplies wigs, hats, scarves, and post-mastectomy products, as well as Offer a Look Good Feel Better makeup program, yoga and group support. It also lends items such as walkers, wheelchairs, canes and crutches

Tickets can be purchased online at communitycancerservices.com or at 1215 Michigan St., Suite B, Sandpoint.
