Comedy fundraiser for Chapeau Ag Society sold out

Comedy fundraiser for Chapeau Ag Society sold out

The Chapeau Agricultural Society is hosting a comedy fundraiser this Saturday (February 11) at Harrington Hall, in order to raise money for their Marché Chapeau project. Tickets to the show went fast and are sold out, but Society President Gene O’Brien spoke with CHIP 101.9 about their fundraising project and how it has progressed.

She said that the goal is to have a permanent structure for the market instead of a tent.

She said that the idea of bringing Yuk Yuks comedy was suggested to them as a fun way to get people out in support, and they managed to sell out their tickets in about a week. She was thankful for all the help they had ensuring the hall was filled.

O’Brien said that they would be hosting a number of fundraisers in the future, with the goal of around $30,000, so those who missed the comedy night will have a chance to support them later this year.
