A quilt and a 42-inch plasma TV will be among the items raffled off at a spaghetti supper and fundraiser for Relay for Life on April 17 at 5 p.m. at the Oregon Golf Club.

Two Relay for Life teams are sponsoring the event, Scott will Win, whose captain is Val Glotfelty, Oregon, and Scott will Win II, captained by Glotfelty's son Scott Beatty.

Beatty was diagnosed with colorectal cancer last May. He will be on hand to help host the event.

The quilt, donated by Ann Martin, is currently on display at Joanne's Total Image, 600 Gale St. Oregon.

Chances will be sold prior to the event and at the event. Besides the quilt and TV, 50-50 raffles are planned.

Supper tickets should be purchased in advance and are available from team members.

For information call Glotfelty at 815-732-7773.
