Tickets are going fast for the Osoyoos Volunteer Fire Department’s annual charity dinner and dance.
The 2019 Osoyoos Firefighters Charity Dinner & Dance, formerly called Oysterfeed, is back for a 16th year with plenty of entertainment, dancing, silent auction items, and, of course, oysters.
This year, the event is on April 13 at the Osoyoos International Curling Club.
The Osoyoos Fire Department utilizes funds raised from the event to make donations to local families, the South Okanagan General Hospital, Penticton Regional Hospital and the burn unit at Vancouver General Hospital.
Only 450 tickets are available and are priced at $65 each.
To get tickets, ask for John or Colin at Osoyoos Home Hardware, or call Miguel at 250-408-5085.
