Tales ‘N’ Trails Museum did not get to celebrate its 10th anniversary of Shebang last year, so it’s back on this year on Sept. 11 to mark 11 years of operation.
Shebang is the annual fundraiser for the museum which showcases Montague County history. There are still tickets available for the big event that features an outstanding meal of filet mignon, cheesy potatoes, green beans, salad, dessert and BYOB. Doors open at 6 p.m.
After dinner guests can enjoy a live auction, silent and bucket auction and spin the wheel to win. Tickets to Shebang are $50 a plate or buy a table for eight for $350. Shebang will be at The Veranda Inn Event Center.
All the proceeds from Shebang are used for maintenance, operations and improvements at the museum. The North Texas Society of History and Culture (dba Tales ‘N’ Trails Museum) is a 501(c) 3 organization and is eligible for tax-deductible donations, endowments and bequests.
