Excitement is in the air as Women’s Connection plans its annual Vendor Fair and Gift Basket Raffle. It’s the perfect time for a fun-filled girlfriend morning. Your favorite vendors will be there and some new ones, too. Adding to the excitement this year is our fabulous gift basket raffle. Tickets will be available throughout the morning. You won’t want to miss out on the chance to win one of these beautiful baskets. Doors will open at 8:00 a.m. for shopping; brunch will be served at 10:00 a.m. Don’t forget the vendors will also be there after the brunch so you can shop to your heart’s content. This event benefits the various programs of Stonecroft Ministries. Mark your calendars for Thursday, November 12 at the Kingston Ballroom of the Oakwood Country Club of Sun Lakes!
