A reminder of the Casino Night fundraiser this Saturday at Cape Fear Vineyard and Winery sponsored by Bladen’s Bloomin’ Agri-Industrial and the Bladen County Committee 100.  Tickets are $50 each.  The event is an effort to revive the Bladen County Committee of 100, longtime supporters of Economic Development efforts in Bladen County.  For those spending $100 or more, you receive a year membership to the Committee of 100.  You are not playing for money, but for prizes from local merchants.  Should be a fun time.  For years, the Committee of 100 had over 200 members, however that number has dropped over the years.  Proceeds support EDC efforts in the county.  Call 910-645-2292 for tickets and info.
