NEW IPSWICHChurch raffle calendars on sale

Raffle calendars for this year’s New Ipswich Congregational Church Children’s Fair are currently on sale.

The calendars can be bought for $10, with prizes listed for every day of the month of August, all worth at least $25. All of the calendars will be numbered consecutively, and when a number is drawn, all winners will be returned to the drawing for the chance to win more than once.

The Children’s Fair, which originally began as a way to support troops in the Civil War and now serves as outreach for the Congregational Church, will be held on Aug. 21 this year.

The calendar raffle was a success in its first year, with more than 430 calendars sold. Those interested in supporting the Children’s Fair by buying a calendar should go to the New Ipswich Congregational Church Children’s Fair Facebook page or contact Karen Veeser or Chris Bergeron for more information.
