SVFD Auxiliary Bingo

Bingo  + Hot Dogs +  Treats  =  FUN

The Sumpter Community Schoolhouse was filled with the kind of fun that comes when friends and neighbors come together to enjoy each other’s company. Free hot dogs, snacks, and bingo were added bonuses that made for a great night of fun for everyone.

Sumpter Volunteer Fire Department

Mayor John Young fires up the grill

Folks who gathered for Bingo, sponsored by the SVFD Auxiliary, enjoyed an extra treat, thanks to the generous donation of hot dogs from Lila and John Young.

Mayor and firefighter John Young donated the hot dogs…….firing up the grill gave Sumpter’s own Bratmiester a chance to brush up on his bbq skills as the Memorial Day Sumpter Flea Market fast approaches.

Learn more about the Sumpter Flea Markets here……

The BBQ skills are needed as the volunteers of the Sumpter Volunteer Fire Dept. will be once again selling hot dogs and sausages to raise money for the dept. Speaking of raising money….the SVFD Auxiliary will take their place beside the firefighters as they sell tasty treats baked and donated by Sumpter residents. Don’t miss the root beer floats, for which the Auxiliary has become quite famous for in past flea markets!

Those who were not able to attend will have another chance to win the jackpot next month as there was no jackpot winner last night. Thanks to the all those who attended last night, the jackpot next month will be $230.

Friday, June 14th ~ 7 pm at the Sumpter Community Schoolhouse

475 N. Mill St. (just north of the Stage Stop Gas Station)

If you weren’t there last night……..you were missed!

Hello Sumpter!

We would like to introduce ourselves to you!  We are Friends of Sumpter Valley Community. Actually, the name is different, but we are still pretty much the same group of volunteers serving our community that you have come to know in Sumpter!

The idea of community breakfasts started several years ago as a way to raise money for needed projects in Sumpter. The breakfasts have been successful and we would like to thank everyone who has been supporting each breakfast! There has been so much support from the community, that we have been thinking of other ways that we can give back to our community by bringing volunteers together in support of events around town.

We know it’s not just about money…!

We are all different, and come from many different backgrounds….yet there is one thing that holds us all together…the love we have for living in Sumpter!

Our organization has grown to include supporting our community in ways that don’t have anything to do with money!

We have partnered with the Sumpter Volunteer Fire Department Auxiliary to look for even more ways to raise money in support of our community and we look forward to serving Sumpter in the coming new year!

If you have any ideas you would like to share with us…you are welcomed to share them with us at one of our public meetings held monthly. Our next meeting is Monday, February 11th, 10 a.m. at the Sumpter Community Schoolhouse – 475 N. Mill St. (just above the State Stop.) We’d love to see you!
