American Legion Auxiliary Unit 274 to host 50’s fundraiser & classic car show
Mark your calendars for a “Fabulous Fifties 2-Day Event” beginning on Saturday, August 21, at 4:00 p.m. The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 274 (located at, 899 Buttonwood Dr., Fort Myers Beach) is hosting their inaugural “50’s Steak ‘n Shake Fundraiser.” Fun games-a Hula-Hoop contest, Hot Rod Races, Toilet Paper Relays, and a “Stay-at-the-Beach” Raffle (donated by Matanza’s Inn)-will keep everyone laughing and having a great time!
Cooked-to-order steak dinners will be served from 5 to 7 p.m. and include a salad, baked potato, veggies, roll & butter, and the Auxiliary ladies’ homemade desserts-all for only $12.00. There will also be prizes for the Best Dressed persons depicting the 50’s era.
Then, be sure to really “shake it up” at The Harry Boyle Show starting at 7:30 p.m. Dance to the 50’s music again and don those dancing shoes for the Dance Contest.
On August 22, the Auxiliary will present their inaugural Classic Car Show. Festivities begin at noon to 3 p.m. Vote for your favorite car. Fresh grilled hamburgers, hot dogs, and cold drinks will be available in the Back Hall area. Music will be provided by the Naples group, “Sanctum.”
Proceeds will be used to further the Auxiliary’s ongoing commitment to provide for our Veterans, their families, and the children of our community. In case of inclement weather on August 22, telephone the American Legion at 463-6591 for further information.
