Breeze Lake and Sunset Palms Pay It Forward

Special to Welcome Home Winter Texan

The theme for this year’s fundraiser at Breeze Lake Mobile Home and RV Campground in Brownsville was Pay It Forward. The third annual event, hosted by Breeze Lake and Sunset Palms RV and Mobile Home Park, also in Brownsville, was held March 1. 

The fun began with a social hour and 50/50 sales at 4 p.m. but didn’t end there. Guests then enjoyed a donation-only spaghetti dinner with garlic bread and dessert. After dinner, it was time for the Red-Carpet Prom, allowing guests to dress in prom-style attire. It wouldn’t be prom without a photo booth and a dance, and the DJ got the crowd fired up on the dance floor.

Local businesses and individuals generously donated raffle items, which were a big hit.

All of the work by Breeze Lake and Sunset Palms residents and the generosity of local businesses and event guests resulted in a successful fundraiser. Nearly $3000 was raised; these funds will be used to purchase groceries to help local people in need. 

The first two years of Breeze Lake and Sunset Palms’ annual event raised $10,000, which they used to purchase service dogs for veterans.
