Chamber Alliance of Mason County presenting the check to FLSP. |
|
FLSP received a donation of $12,538.92 from the Chamber Alliance of Mason County from the net proceeds of BRRRewfest held in January. This is the largest annual FLSP fundraiser and we could not do it without the partnership with the Chamber Alliance and support from 100 volunteers. Thank you to the Chamber Alliance and the volunteers for making this another successful year and we look forward to BRRRewfest 2025 on January 25. |
