There will also be food for sale from the kitchen and a table of homemade baked items. Admission is free.

The Pilot Club of Oak Ridge is a local branch of the Tennessee District of Pilot International. As a world-wide, nonprofit service organization, the mission is too influence positive change in communities throughout the world. To do this, members come together in friendship and give people an outlet for service, the press release said.

Proceeds from this fundraiser will be used toward community projects including, but not limited to, Ridgeview Group Homes and Group Transitional homes, Keystone Adult Day Program, Alzheimer’s Association, Special Education Teacher recognition, and teaching young children how to protect their brain.
