Description

The Fort Fairfield Recreation Department will be holding a silent auction during the town's Annual Maine Potato Blossom Festival beginning July 8th 2023 and ending on the 16th. The funds raised at this event will go towards our youth sports programming in our community. We have recently found it difficult to offer these programs for FREE in our community. With the rising costs of nearly everything in todays world, the last thing we want to do is make a family have to pay for a service that was once free when they are already "up to their neck" in bill and other costs. We are reaching out to donors to see if they would be interested in helping with our event and cause. Any donations would be greatly appreciated. The money raised will go towards youth sports program supplies, team uniforms, safety equipment, etc. Thank you for your time and consideration!
