'The Main Event' Set For November, Will Raise Funds and Awareness for Meals On Wheels

Mark your calendar for Friday, Nov. 9 -- the night when Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties will introduce "The Main Event," our dinner/auction, at Glenmoor Country Club in Canton.

The theme for this year is "Give Hunger the Boot," complete with a Western-style menu and Western decor. We'll be partnering with Shared Blessings, a local organization that raises funds for a variety of charitable causes in the area, to raise money and awareness for our mission.

Tickets to the event are $100. There are a number of sponsorship opportunities that include tickets to the event.

In addition to the fundraising aspect of the event, we will also recognize three pioneers who were instrumental in forming what became Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties: Bill Belden, Stan Cmich and Jane Schirack.

This summer, as part of the event festivities, we are conducting a car raffle in conjunction with Waikem Auto Group. We'll raffle off the chance to win a three-year lease on a 2013 Ford Mustang. Click here for details.
