FUNDRAISER OPPORTUNITY
The Secora family is doing a fundraiser for our Food Bank! Check it out!
Rick Secora built this fish out of old juniper wood that has been dead for at least 100 years. He built the stand out of the same wood, trying to make it look like the fish was coming out of water. It measures 21 1/2” tall 34” long 11” wide. We are going to be selling it by means of an auction.
If you win it, please make the check out to the Headwaters Area Food Bank in Three Forks.
We hear they are in need and 100% of the proceeds will go to them. Bid on the FOOD BANK website HERE
