Admission is a $1 donation for adults, and free for children 12 and under.
Proceeds from the event will benefit The Sunshine Club’s Transportation Fund for children who are patients at the Shriners Burn Unit in Boston or the Shriners Orthopedic Hospital in Springfield, Mass., Kaufman wrote.
The fundraiser features musical entertainment at 1 p.m. at the Holiday Market, hourly door prizes, crafts, collectibles, antiques and a raffle for a queen-size quilt made by club member Connie Lozier, in the Northern Lights pattern.
Kaufman hopes you will stop by the sale “to shop, have lunch in the cafe and thus help the Sunshine Club’s Transportation Fund for children.”
