Tickets for the raffle cost $20 and are a must-have if you are going to attend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If $20 is too salty for you, it might be worth checking out the $1 chance auction instead.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Food, which is prepared and served by members in a variety of styles, will be served beginning at 5 p.m. on Saturday night. Adult attendees will also be invited to join in the festivities by visiting the beer tent, which is open until 11 p.m.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img
