The Starke County Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team is hosting a fundraising banquet this weekend.

The event will be held from 5 p.m. until midnight on Saturday, April 20th at the Nancy J. Dembowski Community Center in Knox.

Tickets cost $25 each and they can be purchased from the Starke County Justice Center or by contacting any officer. Some tickets will be available at the door but they’ll be provided on a first come, first served basis until they reach capacity, which is 216 people.

According to event organizers, the ticket will give you access to a buffet dinner and covers the cost of two alcoholic beverages or soft drinks. The banquet is limited to individuals 21 and up.

The event will also feature a cash bar and a DJ as well as a silent auction with various items. Gun raffles for a Henry-Lever Action 30/30 and a Henry-Lever Action .22 Caliber will also take place.

This will be the first event of its kind but officials have indicated they’re hoping to make this an annual occurrence.
