Exciting Fundraiser Kicking Off the Season in Kill Devil Hills!
Hey there, folks of Kill Devil Hills! As the cooler weather starts rolling in, it’s time for our community to come together in support of a truly wonderful cause. The OBX Room in The Inn (RITI) is all set to launch its 2024-25 shelter season with a bang, and you won’t want to miss their first big event—a fabulous Lunch to Go fundraiser!
When and Where?
Mark your calendars for November 10th from 11 AM to 3 PM. That’s right! This Sunday, grab your friends, family, or even your neighbors, and make your way to Kelly’s OBX Catering, located at 1004 9th Avenue. This drive-thru style fundraiser is perfect for anyone on the go, allowing you to snag a delicious meal while supporting a great cause!
What’s on the Menu?
Are you ready for this? You’ll have a choice between Fried Chicken or Shrimp and Grits, both served up with a refreshing salad, a tasty side dish, and a delightful dessert to round it all off. Yum! And if that wasn’t enough, you can also choose to donate your meal back to the shelter so that the guests can enjoy it too. Talk about double the goodness!
Why is this Important?
Shari Fiveash, the Executive Director of OBX Room in The Inn, shared her excitement about the event: “Our first event of the season, the annual Lunch to Go fundraiser, has become a beloved tradition among OBX Room In The Inn’s supporters. The event provides much-needed funds as we open RITI for the 2024-25 season.” It’s incredible to see the community coming together to help those in need, and knowing that your meal will contribute to a great cause just makes it even better.
