Celebrate Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation's 70th anniversary on March 3

LACONIA — Help celebrate the Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation’s 70th anniversary by attending LRSF’s Annual Benefit Night at Fratello’s Restaurant in Laconia, on Tuesday, March 3, from 4 p.m. to close, courtesy of the McDonough Family.

Twenty-five percent of the food portion of every order will go directly to benefit the LRSF Friends of the Foundation Operating Fund — FOFOF — whether dining in or ordering takeout.

“Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation is grateful for the continued support of the McDonough Family through this annual benefit night. It is a win-win for people in the area," said Executive Director Chris Guilmett. "Those who attend get a delicious meal in addition to helping out LRSF. All you need to do, when placing your order, is mention that you are there to support Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation.

"Since 1956, close to $11 million in scholarships have been awarded by the Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation to Lakes Region students and residents who have gone on to further their education.

"We hope the many diners who have supported us in the past, as well as many new patrons will join us for a festive evening of celebration at Fratello’s.”

“Tickets for our first 'Lucky Scholars' lottery scratch ticket wreath drawing will also be available for purchase,” added LRSF Director, Karen Switzer.

Along with being able to purchase tickets for “Lucky Scholars” that evening, tickets can also be purchased ahead of time directly through Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation’s website a lrscholarship.org.
