Have Fun While Helping a Terrific Cause: Out of the Darkness and Into the Light

Our friend Shelby Davis shares with us the news there are a few spots left for Monday’s Out of the Darkness and Into the Light Reverse Painting Class at Sticks and Stones. From Shelby:

“Join us on Monday (June 12) to learn this uniquely beautiful painting technique with Nancy Magnell! And wine! Did I mention there will be wine? Patty Kosiba from Frederick Wildman and Sons Wine Merchants will be offering a complimentary wine tasting during the event, included in your registration cost. Proceeds benefit the North Country Out of the Darkness Walk to Fight Suicide. And if you like the wine, (what's not to like about wine?!) you can purchase a glass from Sticks & Stones, a bottle or case from Schroon Lake Wine & Liquor; and a portion of those proceeds will go towards the Walk.

There are folks who simply cannot wait until Saturday, for the first Gokey’s Auction of the year. And this one seems to be a doozey, with so many lots, auctioneer John Gokey is getting an earlier start on moving multiple lots out of his North Hudson facility. The viewing starts at 8;30 am, with the first hammer going down at 10 am.

They will end up in the hands of bargain seekers --  from near and far -- who stock their homes, thrift and antique shops and E-Bay seller sites with the goodies on offer.

You can check out photos of all the lots, right here.
