Bring your donations for Olga Daze. This year’s celebration will be Saturday, July 18, rain or shine. Included in the festivities are food, a beer garden, live music, a quilt raffle, a silent auction and a very large barn sale, which offers everything from furniture, books, toys, tools and kitchen items to those one-of-a-kind treasures that someone out there is just waiting for.

Donations will be accepted from 4 to 6 p.m. on Thursday, June 25, Friday, June 26, Thursday, July 2, Friday, July 3, Thursday, July 9 and Friday, July 10. Donations will also be accepted on July 11 from 10 to noon and on July 16 from 4 to 6 p.m.

Bring clean items, in good working order (no clothing) to the Olga Park, next to the Olga Community Club.  If you are unable to drop off on the above days or if pick-up is required, contact Steve Emmes at 376-1461 or Paul Groeninger at 376-7070 to make special arrangements. If you have goods or services to donate to the silent auction, call Emmes.

A tradition of Olga Daze is to raffle a handmade quilt made by Betty Marcum. Raffle tickets will be on sale outside Island Market on weekends, on the Village Green after the July 4th parade or at Olga Daze.

The drawing will take place at Olga Daze but the winner does not need to be present to win.

All of the proceeds from the event go toward maintaining the 101-year-old Olga Community Club building.
