Cheboygan Habitat for Humanity has changed our traditional Banquet format, but the goals remain the same. Come join the fun and help us continue our work to provide decent housing at affordable prices for area residents.

In response to requests by many, we are doing something new. A pig roast will be the format for a summer picnic, but we will eat well “rain or shine.” Here are the particulars:

WHAT: Habitat for Humanity PIG ROAST with picnic fare PLACE: K of C Hall, Cheboygan M-27 South

WHEN: Thursday, AUGUST 14, 2008 TIME: Doors open at 5:00 p.m. and dinner begins at 6 p.m. PRICE: $12.00 per person and $25.00 per family FUN AND FROLIC:

A live auction of 5 major items and a silent auction of many other great things

Now, we need your help. We are seeking donations of five large items (valued at $200 or more) for the live auction. We also need a variety of smaller items to be part of the silent auction collection. This would include your crafts, services, and art works that will attract a spirited bidding environment. Some of you have become famous for your “gifts” contributed at past dinners. We know how talented the people in our area are and how generous they are for Habitat efforts. Please note the change of date for the banquet. We are trying to ease the demands on your time that often come in the spring and fall here in Cheboygan with the advent of sports for kids and school events each year. We would also welcome some of our residents who spend the colder months in other places. Now, you can encourage all your friends and neighbors to join the festivities. We have lots of space for chatting with everyone, getting caught up on local news. We will have space for kids to play too.

EVERYONE LOVES A PICNIC.
