Saturday, October 18

Red Cross through the Decades 6:00 p.m.  –  9:00 p.m.

We hope you will join us on Saturday, October 18th, 2008 to celebrate Red Cross being in Northern Nevada for 110 years at Buckbean Brewery in Reno, Nevada.The evening will feature drinks and hors d'oeuvres, a raffle and Buckbean's finest brews.

All proceeds will be used to provide emergency assistance for families affected by a disaster or displaced due to a house fire and for essential community disaster education. This year alone, the Northern Nevada Chapter responded to both the Fernley flood and the Wells earthquake, providing shelter, meals, clean-up kits and personal hygiene kits to those affected. In addition, our local Red Cross volunteers are providing emergency assistance to families who have lost their homes once every three days on average. The Red Cross also offers vital instruction in first aid, CPR, AED training, baby-sitting and water safety.

We hope you will join us to celebrate this amazing history! If you would like to purchase tickets, become a sponsor or donate a raffle item, please email Monica Myles, Special Events Coordinator or call 775-856-1000 ext. 118.

Also, don't miss your chance to win an ATV! A 2008 Polaris Sportsman X2 700 ATV will be raffled off at the event, and raffle tickets are only $10 each. You need not be present to win.

Cost: $10 - Includes the first beer of your choice.
