Illinois Council of the Blind ICB Summer Fest Fundraiser August 3, 2013

Posted on 7:30 AM by Unknown
What happens when you combine great music, a delicious buffet dinner, good
friends and a chance to help people who are blind or visually impaired with
accessing reading materials, college financial assistance and other things?
You get the first annual Illinois Council of the Blind (ICB) Summer Fest
fundraiser.

When: Saturday, August 3, 2013, 4-9 p.m. Where: 115 Bourbon Street, 3359 W.
115th Street, Merrionette Park, Illinois (708) 388.8881.

The music: "Blind Reflexx" will play all your favorite music as part of
their "Start Me Up" tour. Learn more about them at www.blindreflexx.com.
The food: a delicious buffet dinner, along with free draft beer (Budweiser
and Bud Light), wine and soft drinks. What else? Raffles, door prizes, an
auction and fun.

How much? It's a great bargain for all of this fun and excitement. Advance
tickets are just $30 for adults, and $15 for children and young adults (ages
6-20). Children under 5 are admitted free. Tickets will cost $40 for
adults and $20 for children and adults ages 6-20 at the door.

How do I get tickets? It couldn't be easier.
Contact our office at 217-523-4967, icb@icbonline.org to purchase tickets, or, you can purchase
tickets on-line by going to www.icbonline.org/icb-sf-fundraiser/.
