KELSEYVILLE – The Girl Scouts of Northern California will host a spaghetti dinner fundraiser to benefit the Kelseyville Presbyterian Church Repair Fund on Saturday, Oct. 17.

The event will take place from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the church, located at 5340 Third St. in Kelseyville.

In September, the church experienced a flood affecting the floor in the much-used Friendship Hall.

Girl Scouts from the North Lake area want to give back to the church and will be raising money to support the repairs via the spaghetti dinner.

The goal of the fundraiser is to raise $7,000.

Kelseyville Presbyterian church has over the years graciously made their space available to Girl Scouts and several other community organizations for many meetings, parties and fundraisers. Girl Scouts rely heavily on the use of their facility.

Tickets for the event are $10 for adults, $5 for children ages 4 through 11, and children under 3 eat free.

Tickets can be purchased in Kelseyville at Darlings Vitamin Connection, 3965 Main St. or in Lakeport at Shari's Secret Garden, 240 N. Main St.
