TILTON — The New Hampshire Veterans Home will hold its 5th annual craft fair on Saturday, Sept. 24, 9:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. at the outdoor pavilion, accessible from Colby Road. The fair features free admission.
Vendor registration fees and raffle sales benefit the NHVH Resident Benefit Fund, which provides the continuation of quality programs for veterans through trips, entertainment, programs and other activities.
“We are once again delighted with the response we received from artisans throughout the state,” said Patty Copeland, supervisor of volunteer activities. “Over 80 vendors will be on our grounds offering hand-crafted items for fall and the holidays, in addition to timeless treasures and unique gifts. We look forward to featuring these talented craftspeople who provide something for everyone.”
This year’s fair will have a raffle, with a wide variety of gift certificates and merchandise. Raffle participants enter to win individual items of their choice, with over 140 themed raffle baskets, gift cards, games, children’s toys and holiday items from which to choose. A 50/50 raffle as well as a Boston Celtics basketball with the entire team's signatures from last season will also be raffled.
