Spring is here, flowers are blooming, the sun is shining, and that means it’s time for ramps! The annual ramp dinner at H.E. White Elementary is back for 2021. COVID-19 caused the ramp dinner to be cancelled last year. This is one of the largest fundraisers for the little community school in Bomont, so now is the time to show your full support.
For over 50 years people from all over the United States have visited H.E. White to enjoy this dinner, always complimenting how great the ramps are prepared. Volunteers, school employees, and community members pull together every year to make this event successful and ensure the students can enjoy activities and receive awards throughout the year.
The Ramp Dinner will be on Sunday, May 16, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Due to COVID restrictions, the dinner will be CARRY OUT only. The price remains the same, $10 per meal and will include all the fixings. You can call the school with any questions at 304-548-7101.
The Ramp Dinner includes:
Choice of Ramps, With or Without Potatoes
Ham
Fried Potatoes
Pinto or White Beans

Your Choice of Drink (including Sassafras Tea for $6 per gallon)
