CARIBOU — With preparations well under way for the annual Employee Appreciation Lunchon hosted by the Caribou Business and Professional Women (BPW), there is one late change to the program.
Entertainer Birdie Googins, aka The Marden’s Lady, will be unable to attend the luncheon but President of the Caribou BPW Rani Belanger was able to book an equally entertaining individual for the event: Maine Comedian Mike Bunker, from the Camden area, will be taking the trek up north to entertain folks during the April 24 luncheon.
The luncheon, celebrating its 13th successful year, starts at noon and runs until 1:30 p.m. at the ballroom of the Loring Job Corps Center; participants will enjoy a hot lunch buffet of baked ham with a sweet and sour glaze, blackened chicken, garden salad with homemade dressing and croutons, vegetable rice pilaf, carrots Lyonnaise, rolls, peach cobbler and peanut butter pie.
Tickets are $20 per person and interested individuals can call Darlene Grass with questions at 554-7013 or e-mail dgrass1@Maine.rr.com
Proceeds benefit BPW’s three annual scholarships: the Caribou BPW Viola Willard High School Senior Scholarship, the Caribou BPW Interim Scholarship and the Caribou BPW Non-Traditional Scholarship.
