Rockin' for Ravenwood

We would like to send a very special thank you to all the volunteers, businesses, individual supporters, and attendees who helped make the fourth annual Rockin' for Ravenwood fund-raiser a HUGE success! Over 70 businesses and individuals sponsored or donated items for the event, which raised $5,200 in support of Ravenwood's quality outdoor education programs for kids and adults. Over 250 people enjoyed the music of Rob Quist and Great Northern and the David Thom Band, thirty-five volunteers banked more than 150 hours of work, and countless others baked desserts, sent out of town guests our way, or called to wish us well in their absence.

We so appreciate this fantastic community support and plan to put the raised money to work helping others discover the fun and inspiration gained through greater awareness and understanding of our beautiful home here in the Flathead Valley.

From here on out we're going to hold the event on the third Saturday in July. We hope to see you next year at Rockin' for Ravenwood or through one of our unique outdoor education programs. Visit our Web site www.ravenwoodnsc.org or call 837-7279 for more information about Ravenwood or to make a tax-deductible donation. Thanks again, Bigfork!

In gratitude,
