Or build that outdoor firepit you’ve seen on HGTV, or rent a super swank beach house for a week, or anything you want, really, because it’s your $10,000!
Raffle tickets are $50 and only 500 will be sold! And proceeds from every ticket you buy supports operations and programming at Asheville Community Theatre!

There’s more than Chunky Monkey and New York Super Fudge Chunk in downtown Asheville’s Ben & Jerry’s this summer.
Art created by Vance Elementary School fifth grade students of art educator Robbie Lipe is now on display on the brick walls opposite the Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. The exhibit depicts the students’ interpretation of the artist Kehinde Wiley and the contemporary portraits he creates inspired by traditional Baroque paintings. It will be featured through the end of the summer.
“Ben & Jerry’s is excited about showcasing art from the community inside our scoop shop,” said general manager Chris Carter. “Making use of our walls to show what local artists are creating complements our social mission — to be actively involved in the places we live and do business. I hope this is the first of many art exhibits on our walls.”
Carter gave all the credit for the exhibit to Ms. Lipe, who teaches kindergarten through 5th-grade students at Vance Elementary. She was named the North Carolina Arts Educators Association “Art Educator of the Year” in 2017-2018.
Ben & Jerry’s is located at 19 Haywood Street. Current hours are Monday-Thursday 12 pm to 10 pm; Friday 12 pm – 11 pm; Saturday 11:30 am – 11 pm; Sunday 11:30 am – 10 pm.

This fun and family-friendly lakeside celebration will support The Free Clinics and its unique healthy living program, HealthWays, which makes good health contagious in our community.
Local celebrities, including Superintendent Bo Caldwell, WTZQ’s Mark Warwick & Paige Posey, Vision Henderson County’s Ruth Birge, Major Frank Stout of the Henderson County Sheriff’s Office, and The Free Clinics’s own Judith Long will be lined up on the tossing block where bidders can vie for the chance to push them in the lake. Infamous auction-tainers Duke & Bird will lead the sure-to-be raucous event, awarding the “Early Bird”, “Hot Ticket”, and “Golden Plunger” awards to the “Plungees” who bring in the most donations in advance, at the event, and in total respectively.
Community members who want to see a Plungee “take the plunge” can visit them in person to fill their donation buckets, make contributions online, or on-site at the event. All Plungee and event proceeds will support The Free Clinics and its HealthWays program, a free community health program open to all Henderson and Polk residents.
Event attendees will enjoy wood-fired pizza from Flat Rock Village Bakery, burgers and hot dogs from Kanuga, and a selection of craft beers, cider, and soft drinks. Live music will be provided by Hendersonville’s TNT Band, specializing in popular rock and country oldies. Children will enjoy the lifeguarded splash and play area and face-painting, while all guests can partake in swimming, kayaking, games, and fun photo opportunities.
Plungee Ruth Birge says, “I am so lucky to be included in The Plunge. Who wouldn’t want a chance at winning the “Golden Plunger”?! I mean, what an honor! Really, such fun. By the way, does anyone have a really big inner tube I can use so I won’t have to go all the way under? Yikes!”
“After 14 years working in healthcare in our community, I know someone has longed to push me in the lake. Well, now’s your chance. Give in to that urge…and help our vulnerable neighbors at the same time,” dares TFC’s executive director Judith Long.
Tickets are on sale now for $20 for adults (13yrs+) and $5 for children (5-12 yrs). Children under 5 are free. Family tickets are available for $45 to admit two guardians plus children. Admission includes one food item and one beverage per person, with additional food and beverages available for purchase.
To purchase a ticket or make a celebrity pledge, please call 828-697-8422 or order online at thefreeclinics.org/plunge.
