The Susanville Chapter of Soroptimist International will be holding their annual Margarita Fest Fundraiser on Friday, May 9th, and the event promises to deliver on the fun, with Margaritas to sample, a silent auction, a Nacho Bar, a big raffle and live music by the band Timeless.
The Margarita Fest, held from 6:00 to 10:00p.m., in Jensen Hall at the fairgrounds, has attracted a growing number of attendees each year and is always a lot of fun.
Soroptimist International of Susanville is a non-profit women’s organization with the sole purpose in bettering the lives of women and children in our local community and around the world.
Each year the club’s dedicated members work diligently on contributing to our town through a multitude of service efforts which include $6,000 in scholarships and education awards, providing necessities for 5-6 families in need during the holiday season and supporting other local non-profits like Lassen Family Services and senior services programs.
The group also works closely with the young women and girls of the community – hosting empowerment workshops, and sponsoring the S-Club; a group of junior high, high school and college student community service clubs.
Tickets for Margarita Fest are available at Margie’s Book Nook and the Lassen County Chamber of Commerce and are $45 presale ($50 at the door) and include a ten-flavor margarita taster card, one full margarita or beer and nacho bar. You must be 21 to attend.
You can purchase tickets at Lassen County Federal Credit Union or Margie’s Book Nook. You can find out more information by visiting the Soroptimists on Facebook.
The Soroptimists have partnered with Lassen Rural Bus to provide safe rides to and from the event within Susanville city limits.
