WINNERS OF LIONS CLUB RAFFLE ENJOY A DELIGHTFUL                          DINNER PARTY AT HEARTHSIDE

The winning ticket of the Lions Club Raffle for a "Private Dinner Party for Six at Hearthside" was drawn on May 19th and the winner was Lou Crispino of Lincoln.  The gourmet dinner was held on Saturday, June 5th, complete with music provided by   Carolyn Sloat and Audrey Godin on the antique dulcimer,  and hosted by costumed interpreters   Lady Peg Lariviere  and Lady Estelle Barada.   An elegant menu was prepared and served by chefs   Francine and John Scanlon that consisted of  Chilled Lemon Infused Gazpacho, Summer Salad, Blood Orange Sorbet, Shrimp Scampi with Fresh Grape Tomato over Spinach Linguine, Grilled Tenderloin of Beef, Roast Red Pepper and Vidalia Onion Marinade, Mixed Grilled Vegetables, Custard Flan and served with a Berringer Moscato.          Although it was a sweltering night, the guests were thrilled with their experience at Hearthside.  Lou's wife Patti summed it up the next day. "What a wonderful evening we all had on Saturday night.  Everything was just perfect from the food to the tour to the music.  My group couldn't stop raving about it!  Everyone was so friendly, and they all helped to make our evening so enjoyable." The raffle was sponsored by the Lincoln Lions Club and raised $1,250 for the continued restoration of Hearthside.  The Lions have already expressed interest in running another raffle later this year.  Watch for an announcement in the coming months!  Thanks to all who sold, and bought, raffle tickets!  Your support is truly appreciated.
