The Peebles Lions Club sponsors festival annually to support their community

Peebles Lions Club has sponsored the OTD Festival for many years with one goal in mind, to help our community.  This is our 42nd year and this past year we have helped the community with medical bills, trips to the doctor for handicapped children, coats for schoolchildren and adults, our biggest project is our eyesight program, where we collect used glasses to give to those who cannot afford them.  Many unemployed families are in need of help with food, shelter, and clothing. Our outreach program is here to also help these people in need.

2010 Updates and Notices

Meetings are the third Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. - new members are welcome! Next meeting will be the fourth Tuesday due to the fair schedule, we will meet on July 26, 2010, at 7 p.m. at the community building. New members are welcome.

 

Vendors are still being accepted.  Early bird specials ended in June, but we have spots available at prices that cannot be beat anywhere else.  We are taking crafters for the craft house too.

 

The committee has chosen a new amusement ride company this year.  Rides will be provided by Cromer United Amusement Company.  Tickets for an arm band go on sale in July for $10.  they will be $12. at the ticket booth during the festival.

 

We are looking for an electrician to help during festival week.  If you are a certified electrician, we could use your help.  Our electrician of over 30 years has retired and we need one as soon as possible.

Entertainment is still being booked for 2010.  Most spots are taken but if you are interested you must submit a demo CD to the Entertainment Chairperson.  Contact her at: 937-587-3749 for details.
