All three locations of Bennett’s Furniture and Mattresses; Campbellford, Peterborough and Kingston, have organized a designer tree benefit for each community in support of Campbellford Memorial Hospital, Peterborough Regional Health Care and Kingston Regional Health Care.
Owner of Bennett’s Home Furniture and Mattresses Marlaine Bennett told us more about the Campbellford event.
Each location is hosting an in-store event from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm as follows:
· November 29th, 2023 – Campbellford store (13 Front St S, Campbellford, On)
· November 30th, 2023 – Kingston store (2376 Princess St, Kingston, ON)
· December 1st, 2023 – Peterborough store (105 Park St S, Peterborough, ON)
Tickets for these in-store events are $50.00 a person.
“There will be live music, and food sampling and wine from local businesses,” said Marlaine Bennett. “We will also have some exclusive shopping surprises too.”
The designers at Bennett’s Home Furniture and Mattresses have carefully curated eight themed trees, with each tree sponsored by local businesses in each community.
Marlaine explained how the benefit will work.
The tree themes include: Soft Sage, Mixed Metals, Woodland, Nordic Fun, Icy Blue, Outdoor Fun, Tuxedo (black and white) and Classic Christmas.
“Each ticket gets you a ballot to put in your favourite tree design, and if your ballot is selected, you could win that tree,” added Bennett.
The goal for these events is $50,000. In Campbellford, the foundation is looking to purchase a new CT scanner but the proceeds from each local event will be designated to their local hospital to purchase equipment for their hospitals.
“There will be door prizes, and we have exciting silent auction items, some really nice things and some really big things, all donated by our business partners and community members, it’s going to be a fun night,” added Bennett.
Event tickets are available at all Bennett’s locations by phone or by dropping into the store.
There are $50.00 in-store event tickets which give you a ballot and entry into the event but if you are not able to attend, you can purchase a ballot for $25.00 to place in the draw for your favourite tree which are currently on display in the stores.
