During the month of May and June, the Springfield Senior Center will be selling raffle tickets for a fundraising event that will be taking place during the entire month of June. Each day of June, we will be raffling off a different item, items which are coming from a variety of local businesses. Each raffle ticket will be $10 each and all money raised will go toward the senior center. Everyone can buy as many tickets as you would like so that you can increase your opportunity of winning. Some items that we will be raffling are as follows: gift certificates, gift baskets, Roadrunner day trip tickets and so much more. A full list and calendar of what will be raffled on each day will be available soon. On Monday, May 8, come into the Springfield Senior Center to sign up for the trip that will be taking place on Thursday, July 20 down to Essex, Connecticut for the steam train and river boat excursion. Come cruise with the Roadrunners as we travel the ONLY steam train and riverboat ride in the U.S. We will enjoy lunch aboard the steam train in a 1920s era air-conditioned Pullman luxury cart and sail down the Connecticut River on a Mississippi-style Riverboat.
