The Carousel is corralling our efforts to join the fight to end hunger this holiday season – expanding and kicking off its annual Marion-Polk County Food Share drive with it’s Scarousel Bash on Halloween!
Collection barrels will remain in place throughout November and December 2009, with the drive officially ending on New Year’s Day 2010.
Visitors who participate by bringing in non-perishable and canned food items can receive a prize drawing ticket entry for every item presented, each and every time they donate and/or visit. The customer will submit their name and number on each ticket to be entered to win. There is no limit on donations or drawing entries. THE PRIZES will be Seasonal ‘50 free Ride Punch Card’ passes that will be given away as an incentive.
Drawings will be held throughout the donation drive time period on:
Oct. 31st – during the Scarousel Bash (5-7pm)
Nov. 11th – in honor of Veteran’s Day (12pm)
Nov 27th – during the Carousel Express when Santa arrives by train - the Jolly Ol’ Elf himself will choose the winner during this event.
