North Smithfield Heritage Fundraiser

We sold over 70 tickets thus far for the dinner next Saturday, June 17 at the Village Haven (lower hall). We're well on our way to 100! I encourage you to buy your tickets before Wednesday, so we can give the restaurant time to order enough food.  

You can purchase tickets online via Venmo, PayPal Giving Fund, or through Eventbrite. You can also  purchase tickets in person at Village Paint & Decorating (Slatersville Plaza), at the Town Hall (83 Green Street) or at the Memorial Town Building (1 Main Street). We will reserve tables for 5 or more people but we will fill empty seats as needed.

The Haven will serve a traditional family style chicken dinner followed by the comedy of Father Patrick Aloysious Misgivings. Please come and enjoy a night of great food and fun.  

Warm Regards,

Rich Keene
