LYNDONVILLE – The 29th annual Treasure Island fundraiser sponsored by Orleans Community Health Foundation is scheduled Nov. 4 at White Birth Golf Course in Lyndonville.

A special feature this year will be honoring the Twig Association for 70 years of dedication and volunteerism to support Medina Memorial Hospital. Twig donations topped more than $1 million before they announced the organization would dissolve in May.

Tickets for Treasure Island are $50 per person and can be purchased online or at Medina Memorial Hospital. (Click here for more information.)

The evening will feature a buffet dinner, open bar, impressive silent and live auctions, raffles and entertainment. This year, each guest will have the complimentary chance to win a treasure chest filled with prizes.

All auctions will be open to guests only, featuring paper bid sheets for the silent auction and automatic online checkout. The silent and live auction will offer many exciting items, including a stay in Myrtle Beach, a custom pantry and much more, according to Foundation director Megan Johnson.

The event committee organizing Treasure Island is chaired by Pam Canham, with members Ruth Bane, Gloria Brent, Lori Condo, Jeanne Crane, Nicole Goyette, Cindy Hewitt, Barb Jantzi, Megan Johnson, Dawn Meland, Agnes Recco, Marguerite Sherman, Kathy Vicknair and Sandra Walter.
