Greetings from the Northern Lights Arts Council!
2023 is off to a great start! Thank you for coming out to support the Roxy Fundraiser! A huge thank you to the Langdon Eagles Club for hosting, cooking, and for their donation of $2,500 from burger night proceeds! Proceeds from the bake sale, raffle, and other donations totaled $3,400. We can’t thank you all enough for your generous donations! Funds will be used for the roof repair project and marquee restoration. And congratulations to the winner of the 50/50 raffle, Sandra Brooks!
