Hoot Owls sets spaghetti benefit

PONDERAY — Spaghetti may not seem like a traditional holiday meal, but an annual fundraiser for the Sandpoint Lions’ Toys for Tots is one of the tastiest benefits around.

For 19 years, Wendy Frank and the Hoot Owl crew host a spaghetti feed to raise money to make Christmas merry for the community’s children. This year’s spaghetti feed will be held Friday, Dec. 14 from 4-7 p.m. at the Ponderay restaurant, located at 30784 Highway 200.

The cost is $7 per plate and all proceeds

The Hoot Owl donates all the food, along with the help of their suppliers, the use of the restaurant, and the restaurant’s wait staff work for free. That means every penny raised at the fundraiser goes to the Lions’ Christmas program.

If you’re looking for a good meal — and a chance to stay out of the kitchen — while helping a great cause, head over to the Hoot Owl on Dec. 14 enjoy a delicious spaghetti dinner.
