Orchid: Miss Lake County thanks the community

The Miss Lake County Scholarship Program wants to extend a much appreciated thank you to all our contributors and attendees for the successful fundraiser we held on Dec. 14, 2009, at TJ’s Bar and Grill in Lakeport.


This event was chaired and organized by Pam Scully, the owner of Lakeport Furniture. With the help of her daughter, Hannah, and husband, Andy Scully, they collected more than 20 silent auction prizes from local businesses.


Pam contributed a leather recliner from her store as a raffle prize. She was also responsible for negotiating with Glen Wienke, the owner of TJ’s Bar and Grill, to host our dinner at his new restaurant in Lakeport.


We will be forever grateful to Pam and her family for all their time and energy. We were also thrilled that a new restaurant in town so graciously donated their facility. We were served a fabulous Italian pasta dinner by a very attentive staff.


The following businesses donated a variety of silent auction items: Lakeport English Inn (Karen Mackey), The Locker Room, Flowers By Jackie, Sheri’s Secret Garden, Campos Casual, Candle Rebels (Amy Collins), Freedom Skate Shop, The Goldsmith Jeweler, Inspirations Gallery, Linda’s Hallmark, All About Me, Band Box, On The Waterfront, The Wright Look, Lakeport Furniture & Design, Lakeport Learning Center (Laura Hershey), TNT Fireworks, and T.A.C. Anthony’s Tanning Service.


Thank you so much for all the wonderful donated prizes. You have all helped in contributing to our scholarship funds.


Our next pageant will take place on Aug. 7 at Robinson Rancheria Resort and Casino. We will be crowning a new Miss Lake County and Miss Lake County’s Outstanding Teen. All participants in our pageant will receive an award.
