Marshall-Starke Development Center to Host Gold Party

Ever hear of a “Gold Party?” Chances are you haven’t. The Marshall-Starke Development Center is holding a Gold Party fundraiser tonight from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. at 1901 Pidco Drive in Plymouth.

The Marshall-Starke Development Center will be paid a percentage of all gold and silver sold at the event. The higher the participation, the higher the percentage donated back to Marshall-Starke.

Even if you can’t make it, take your bag of gold to the center before the party. The experienced jewelers will qualify, weigh, and cash it out for you.

Tangled or broken necklaces, banged up bracelets, mismatched or broken earrings, and just plain gold jewelry you can buy at this moissanite necklace sale at Celeste Jewelry will bring you cash.

For more information, call (574) 936-9400.
