Ice Bar fundraising event this Saturday at Buck’s Naked BBQ by Lorraine Glowczak




Arctic Spirits will provide a unique fundraising event on Saturday, February 25 at Buck’s Naked BBQ, 4 Turning Leaf Drive in Windham from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
The fundraiser, a first for Arctic Spirits and the Windham area, will be an ice bar event with the proceeds going to Camp Sunshine, located in Casco. Camp Sunshine provides a year-round opportunity for children with life-threatening illnesses to spend a week at the camp. This camp provides respite, recreation and support to children and their families from all over the country at no cost to them.

Emily Wainwright, one of the founders of Arctic Spirits, stated that they began raising funds for Camp Sunshine about two years ago. The first fundraiser was a wine and beer tasting event and it has slowly morphed into the Ice Bar event.
Light appetizers and all types of beverages will be served, along with entertainment by DJ Nate Hicks, a raffle and silent auction inside! Arctic Spirits is one of the only ice bar events in the Sebago Lakes Region.

Tickets are available online at: www.eventbrite.com by typing the key words “Arctic Spirits” into the search bar on the homepage. The cost to purchase the tickets online prior to the event is: $25 per person or $40 per couple. Tickets include one free drink ticket good for a mixed drink, beer or wine.

“I am honored to be able to plan such a cool event to help Camp Sunshine out,” Wainwright stated. “For the children and their families, it’s a lasting, memorable, fun time to have the chance to enjoy what our little region has to offer.”

Wainwright would like to remind area businesses, that sponsorship opportunities are still available starting at only $100. She is also still actively taking in donations for the silent auction, raffle, and door prize give-a-ways. For donations or sponsorship, contact Wainwright at: Emily@metayerfamilyeyecare.com.
