The fifth annual CASA Playhouse Raffle marks the program’s return.
The event is ran by Columbia Gorge CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate), a non-profit that recruits, trains and supports community volunteers to advocate for local kids in foster care. This annual fundraiser focuses on the theme of “home” and the need for all children to have safe, loving and permanent homes. Currently more than 140 children in Hood River, Wasco and Sherman counties call foster care home.
This year's house reflects a clean, classic cottage design with vibrant red stained wood siding, according to a news release from CASA.
The 5-by-8-foot house is built on an elevated 18-inch base and includes a front porch, windowed door, two interior windows and standing seam metal roof. The structure can also can be used as a garden shed or easily converted into a deluxe chicken coop.
Playhouse business sponsors are Adams Construction, Copper West Properties, Brown Roofing and Tum-A-Lum. The house can be seen on display in front of Tum-A-Lum in The Dalles and will move between The Dalles and Hood River over the next two months. The ticket drawing will be held July 7.
Tickets are $20 or three for $50 and are available for purchase at Waucoma Bookstore and Klindt’s Booksellers. All proceeds benefit CASA. Pictures and more information are available at www.gorgecasa.org.
