HANCOCK -- The Keweenaw Community Foundation (KCF) will host its annual Pure Gold event from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 24, in the Isle Royale Ballroom on the campus of Michigan Technological University in Houghton. The event raises funds to support the operations of KCF. The theme is "Opening Doors," signifying the Foundation's role in supporting community organizations.
The evening begins with social hour, cash bar and live music, followed by a three-course dinner at 7 p.m. The main course includes red wine braised short ribs, Yukon gold mashed potatoes, roasted root vegetables and a dinner roll. Following dinner, a key donor will be recognized and other community awards will be presented.
This year, the event will wrap up with a live auction. The highlight of the auction is an authenticated Gordie Howe Detroit Red Wings jersey. In addition to the jersey, other auction items include a 24-karat gold half-carat diamond pendant on a gold slide and a four-night stay at Crescent Ridge in Park City, Utah, including two round-trip tickets.
