10/11/12 - The returns from a recent fundraiser for a local non-profit took the chill out of what was otherwise a cooler-than-normal autumn evening. LACASA’s 2nd Annual Denim & Diamonds was held last Saturday at the Tamarack Ranch in Hartland Township and officials say the event nearly doubled in attendance over last year. More than 600 people turned out for a night of music, food, dancing, and games of chance including Diamond Dipping and Wild West gambling. The event also exceeded fundraising expectations, according to LACASA CEO & President Bobette Schrandt, who says preliminary figures show that Denim & Diamonds increased in revenue by 50 percent over last year. Schrandt thanked Barbara Walstrom and Gordon Follmer for hosting the event for the second year in a row, with all of the proceeds going directly to help vulnerable children and adults from Livingston County. LACASA provides comprehensive services for victims and survivors of child abuse, domestic violence and sexual assault. (JK)
