Events begin at 2 p.m. with ticket sales, kicking off a series of fun events that run well into the evening, concluding with a movie.
The funds collected for the event will allow the Plunge West Project team to break ground on the west side of the building for a bocce ball court, new walkway, side and back gardens.
The project will also include a sustainability teaching garden and a butterfly habitat, Maryn Hurlbut said.
"The walkway will be made with etched pavers that you can buy right now," she said. "Your family and business can be immortalized by ordering your paver right now."
Etched large pavers cost $275 each.
The dinner is being provided by Saluté, Hotel Mac Restaurant, Up and Under, and Assemble with kid pizza by Raymond's. Adult dinners are $15. Kid's dinners are a $5 donation. Dinner includes a movie with popcorn. Dessert is being provided by Brezo.
Beer and wine are available for purchase but not included in the ticket price.
To purchase the pavers and tickets go to: http://www.rta-ca.org
"Please print/save your receipt and bring it with you for entrance to the dinner and movie," Hurlbut said.
"And please support this highly requested town improvement by buying your tickets right now. With everyone's help, groundbreaking will happen in July."
