Robe Valley benefit
Join Robe Valley Firefighters for an old-fashioned get-together barbecue.
It’s planned for 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at Green Gables General Store, 32518 Mountain Loop Highway in Granite Falls.

All proceeds from this event go to benefit Robe Valley Fire District 23.
There will be raffles to win a barbecue and a chance to cut hair for a Locks of Love benefit. They will also sell coffee beans and ice coffees from Blue Stilly Coffee Roasters.
