Magician during Gilford's Old Home Day celebration On Friday, August 26 (4:30 p.m.) and Sunday, August 27 (9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.), Gilford Community Church (GCC) will host its annual Summer Fair. Held in conjunction with the Town of Gilford’s Old Home Day on August 27, GCC festivities will include music, chuck wagon, hot dogs, ice-cream, refreshments, and silent auction with proceeds to support the church’s philanthropy.
“So many businesses and individuals donate all kinds of items to help make this fair really an incredible experience for anyone who attends,” noted Pastor Michael Graham.
Examples of auction items include overnight get-aways, gift baskets, and gift certificates to area restaurants, businesses, and area attractions. “The fair routinely raises between $12,000 and $18,000,” added Graham, who said GCC’s Summer Fair also includes gently used items “priced to sell.”
