The name of Hoedown for the Homeless & Hungry at Circle K Ranch pretty much explains its purpose. The event will raise money for Allied Churches of Alamance County’s homeless shelter and Good Shepherd Community Kitchen.
The fundraiser will be from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. The ranch is at 2037 Yale Drive, south of Graham.
Tickets are $10 each. People who didn’t buy advance tickets can pay at the door.
The event will include:
Barbecue and side dishes.
Bluegrass band “Constant Change.”
Presentation of the “Cowboy Up” award.
Pumpkin painting and Halloween costume contests.
A silent auction.
A chance to win a 6-year-old registered quarter horse donated by Bob Keen and Robert Shope.
Greg Seel, president of Allied Churches of Alamance County’s Board of Directors, said the organization needs money to help people relying on its services.
“Our numbers are up,” he said, during a time when donations to non-profits are down.
Plus, Seel said, the event offers a lot for what people will pay.
“Where else can you get good food, good music and a lot of fun for $10,” he asked.
