Posted on February 8, 2019
Author Jacque Ryan, WKVI

The Starke County Sheriff’s Department Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team will host a fundraising banquet later this year.

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

Tickets can be bought for $25 each. According to event organizers, that gives you access to the 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, a DJ and a silent auction with various items that will begin at 8 p.m.

Gun raffles for a Henry-Lever Action 30/30 and a Henry-Lever Action .22 Caliber will take place during the event.

Funds collected will be used to purchase some much needed equipment. This will be the first event of its kind but officials have indicated they’re hoping to make this an annual occurrence.

Tickets can be purchased by visiting the Starke County Justice Center or by contacting any Starke County police officer. You can also buy them online through EventGroove.com.

For more information, visit the SWAT Fundraiser event page or call the Sheriff’s Office at 574-772-3771.

Starke County Humane Society Fundraiser

From the Starke County Humane Society Facebook page:  

The shelter is in dire need of new kennel doors! The ones we currently have were installed in 1990. As you can imagine, they've experienced a lot of wear and tear over the years. Due to the sizes and nature of the doors, they are going to need to be handmade.

We are holding an online Norwex fundraiser thru the month of February. A percentage of all orders will be donated back to the shelter to help us reach our goal of $4,000.00 to replace our kennel doors. All ordering is done online and shipped straight to your door! I'm confident you will love your products and the peace of mind knowing that you can quickly and easily clean your entire home with just water and Norwex! No more chemicals!

Our February customer specials are AMAZING! Check out the Pet Perfect Set! A MUST HAVE for all pet owners!

Any questions may be directed to Heather at 219-242-2421.

Thank you for your support! Please help us achieve our goal and get our new kennel doors!

4/12/2014 Community Services of Starke County Hosts Tailgaiting Fundraiser

By: Nathan, WKVI
Published: April 10th, 2014

Attention sports fans. Don’t miss your chance to hang out with Chicago Tribune sports writer David Haugh and bid on some exclusive Chicago sports SWAG Saturday night. He’s headlining a tailgaiting party Saturday night at the Nancy J. Dembowski Community Center to benefit a nonprofit organization close to his heart. His mother, Joan, is the executive director of Community Services of Starke County. Proceeds from “Tailgaiting with David Haugh and Charlie Adams” will all benefit the agency. Haugh says the organization was a part of his life when he was growing up in North Judson and is very important to Starke County because of all of the services they provide. He and former WSBT sportscaster Charlie Adams will be at the 5 p.m. event, which will include a live auction of a lot of sports memorabilia. Items up for bid include items from the reigning Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks and footballs signed by Chicago Bears players. The Chicago White Sox also donated items, and a signed Notre Dame Football will be sold as well.

“Any time I get a chance to come back home it’s a good night,” Haugh said. He’s ranked 15th on the IHSAA Career Receiving Yards list with 2,941 and still holds the North Judson-San Pierre High School record. Haugh continued his football career at Ball State, where he was an All-Mid-American Conference safety and Academic All-American. He worked for the “South Bend Tribune” for nearly a decade before joining the “Chicago Tribune” staff in 2003.

Tickets for the event are $25 each. Call Community Services of Starke County at 574-772-7070 or visit their website:  www.communtiyservicesofstarkecounty.org for more information.
