Winter Warmer Project is Holding a Second Blanket/Coat Drive, 2/3

With the cold winter we are experiencing this season the Winter Warmer Project is holding another Blanket/Coat Drive this Saturday at Appalachian Mountain Brewery from noon to 7pm.   

While a record number of coats and blankets have been collected and record amount of money raised ($28,000) the cold weather has driven the needs higher.    The Winter Warmer Project has, also, expanded assistance throughout the High Country into Ashe and Avery counties.    

“We always use the term “Coat Drive”, but what we see is the need for is blankets, warm socks, hats, and gloves.    Any donation is appreciated, no donation is too small.   A single pair of thick socks can make a big difference to the person who needs them.   A single blanket will keep someone warm is a big deal to someone who has been shivering through the night.”

If you cannot stop by AMB this Saturday, Hair Creations (643 k2 Greenway Road in Boone) has a collection box to accept donations during the week.

 

Lenoir Comedy Club Performance, 2/3

Jen Kober is the performing comedian this year at the Lenoir Comedy Club on Saturday, February 3rd, 2018 at 7 PM, at the J.E. Broyhill Civic Center, located at 1913 Hickory Blvd SE, Lenoir, NC 28645. The Lenoir Comedy Club is one of Caldwell Arts Council’s biggest fundraisers, and is a great opportunity to enjoy adult humor in a comedy club atmosphere while supporting the local arts community. Tickets for the event are $35 at the door, and $30 in advance. To reserve your tickets, call the Caldwell Arts Council at 828-754-2486 or visit caldwellarts.com. Beer and Wine will be available for purchase. This event will include adult humor and is not recommended for anyone under 18.

Jen Kober is originally from Lake Charles, LA, and has energetically bounded onto the national stage bringing crowds to their feet with her original blend of stand-up, story telling, and improvised rock-n-roll comedy.  Her hard-hitting hour is phenomenally funny as Kober commands the stage and dares you not to laugh. Jen was the 2016 Winner of NPR’s Snap Judgement Comedic Performance of the Year for her  Girl Scout Cookie story which went viral upon its release earlier that year.
