Fire & Spice Inspire Twice

(Page 5)
By Todd Curran
The combined efforts of Spicer's Apothecary / Pharmasave and Black Diamond Fire Department raised over $1,100 during an inspired event benefiting the community.
On August 28th, the dynamic duo held a sidewalk sale and BBQ at Spicer's on Centre Avenue in Black Diamond, with all proceeds going to the Diamond Valley and District Boys and Girls Club. “It was a great success!” says store owner and event organizer Jay Spicer. “The BBQ raised $405.00 and the sidewalk sale raised $710.00.”
“It's an idea that we've been throwing around for a year,” event organizer Deirdre Spicer says. “Both us and the Fire Department were busy from the get go. We were still setting up when people began to arrive. Several people even overpaid for items to support the Club.”
Deirdre said that they would like to make the fundraiser an annual event, “But we'll see how it goes,” she says.
