Pearl Theater to host Annual Fall Festival and
Fashion Show for Boundary County Victim Services |
|
October 28, 2015 |
By: Melissa Krejci, Victim
Advocate
Boundary County Victim Services
It is that time of year again! We start to lose
our tan, shake off that summer heat, quit
worrying about our yards, drink and eat pumpkin
spice… everything… and begin the season of
celebrations!
We are so pleased to announce that Boundary
County Victim Services, formerly, Boundary
County Youth Crisis and Domestic Violence
Hotline, will be holding its annual Fall
Festival and Fashion Show at the Pearl Theater.
Mark your calendars for Saturday, November 7,
2015. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. and
merriments begin at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $10,
and you may purchase them at Under the Sun or
the Boardwalk Boutique, both located on Main
Street, in the historic district of downtown
Bonners Ferry.
We will be blessed again this year to don
distinctive and timeless apparel courtesy of
Anne Bonar and the Boardwalk Boutique, and will
get the pleasure of bidding on Karen Moore’s
beautiful and exclusive baskets during the live
and silent auctions that will be held that
evening. Beer and wine will be available for
purchase, made possible by Under the Sun. Many
auction items are presented to bid on and all
proceeds will go directly to benefit the
Boundary County Crisis Line and the Boundary
County victims of crime, including, but not
limited to, victims of Domestic Violence and
Sexual Assault.
The Crisis Line at 208-267-5211 is in operation
24/7 and 365 days of the year by trained
volunteers and staff. Boundary County Victim
Services are available to provide support, offer
information, provide court escort, education and
referral services to victims of crime and their
immediate families, witnesses and survivors. We
encourage people of all ages, gender and culture
to contact us at any time for assistance
navigating the sometimes overwhelming legal
system, and the often frightening realities of
Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. All of the
services that we offer are free to the
community.
For more information please contact us at
208-267-5211. Office hours are 9:00 a.m. to 4:30
p.m. Monday through Friday. We are located in
the basement of the courthouse. Email us at
bcycdvh@gmail.com with any questions you may
have. We look forward to celebrating compassion,
community and empowerment with all of you at the
Pearl! |
