The Wilmot Community Association (WCA) and the Wilmot Learning Place (WLP) will participate in a Thursday’s Child fund-raising event starting at 5:30 PM Thursday, November 19, at the Coach House Restaurant at the New London Inn, 353 Main Street., New London.

“With many decades of affiliation, it is particularly appropriate that the WCA and the WLP collaborate on a fund-raising event such as Thursday’s Child at the Coach House Restaurant,” said Susan Nye, administrator of the WCA. “The Wilmot Community Association and the Wilmot Leaning Place not only share a building, but they also share the goal of creating a vibrant community.”

Those who want to support the WCA and the WLP should make reservations directly with the Coach House Restaurant.

A portion of the net proceeds from meals purchased that evening by supporters of the WCA and the WLP will benefit the two non-profit organizations.

“This event is a great opportunity for friends to get together for a fun and festive night out,” said Rosanna Dude, president of the WLP Board of Directors. “What a terrific way to benefit two wonderful organizations!”

Reservations for the Thursday’s Child on November19 to benefit the WCA and the WLP are available at  526-2791.
