Oswego, NY (March 14, 2017)- Each summer, Oswego Harbor Festivals, Inc., a registered 501 (c)(3)non-profit organization, works tirelessly to raise the funds necessary to plan and implement Harborfest. This year, the organization has partnered with Ron DeGroff, owner and president of Bridge Street Jewelers in Oswego, to raffle off a stunning pair of .35 carat diamond earrings, valued at $450, to a Harborfest Individual or Family Member who has contributed at the $25 level or above.
For each increment of $25 donated, a member will receive one raffle ticket. Membership forms can be found on the official Harborfest website (www.oswegoharborfest.com), at the Harborfest offices located at 41 Lake Street in Oswego, or can be mailed to specified addresses by calling (315)-343-3733. Once the tickets have been filled out with contact information, they need to be taken to Bridge Street Jewelers, located at 211 West First Street in Oswego in order to be entered into the raffle. The drawing will be held on Thursday, July 27, 2017 during the Harborfest Opening Ceremony on the NRG Lakeview Stage in Breitbeck Park.
Harborfest Executive Director Peter Myles commented on the collaboration with Bridge Street Jewelers by saying, “We’re thrilled that Bridge Street Jewelers is helping Harborfest reach fundraising goals with such a valuable donation. The spirit of Harborfest is closely aligned with the spirit of community here in Oswego, and it’s inspiring to see so many of our individual and family members support us each year.”
Oswego Harborfest celebrates its 30th birthday this July, scheduled for Thursday the 27th through Sunday the 30th.
