Good Samaritan Society To Host “Spring Fling”

(Le Mars) — We are about a month away from the official start of spring, but the Good Samaritan Society of Le Mars is scheduled to hold its “Spring Fling” this Thursday, February 22nd. Darci Athens, the Development Manager with Good Samaritan Society of Le Mars says the Spring Fling is a fund raiser for the retirement community.

As Athens mentioned, the Good Samaritan Society turns 60 years old this year, and Athens says they hope to raise $600,000 for the endowment fund.

Past donations, according to Athens, have gone to help beautify the grounds surrounding the retirement center.

This year’s “Spring Fling” will take on a Classic Rock Music theme featuring a local man who now is nationally known as a Rock Music Announcer.

Joining Webb as the co-emcee will be Teresa Petty of American Bank.

Athens says the evening will feature a fashion style show, a silent auction, plus a whole lot of more fun. The event will take place at the Le Mars Convention Center and tickets are selling at $50 a piece.
