With the help of many longtime supporters of their passion project, The Highground and Camp Victory’s mission, the Basket Babes, as they’ve become known as, hosted a massive raffle on Saturday, June 12. The event included 114 meticulously-crafted baskets that included five grand prizes.

Sue and Mary Kokosz’s time and effort paid off as they presented The Highground and Camp Victory with $3,488 in proceeds, to be designated specifically for Camp Victory’s general operational expenses.

“We wanted to go out (on their one-year hiatus) with a bang,” stated the Basket Babes, and that they did. Watch for them and their amazing raffle baskets when they return as part of The Highground events in 2023.

The Highground is forever grateful to Sue, Mary and the entire Kokosz family for their unwavering support, along with the many sponsors who have joined the cause: Target, Marshfield Walmart, Marshfield Pick ‘N Save, Marshfield Woodfield Inn & Suites, Marshfield Lumberyard Bar & Grill, Marshfield Country Club, Sam’s Club, Nasonville Dairy, Gordon Food Services, Warrenville Ace Hardware, Hair We Are Hair Salon, Rose Bowl Lanes, Moraine Motel, Festival Foods, BP of Stratford and Blain’s Farm & Fleet in Romeoville, IL.
