We wanted to take a minute to catch you all up on the auction planning!
Our next Auction meeting will be in Dallas on Saturday February 1st at 10:00. Everyone is welcome so email me if you can attend and I’ll send you directions.
We will be selling Rifle Raffle Tickets, Partners in Education Lapel Pins and passing out information about the auction at this weekend’s AOL Convention. Thank you to Betsy Yraguen, Vanessa Hagedorn and Kay King for helping this weekend! If you have any auction donations or wine and will be attending the AOL meeting, bring it with you. I will pick it up!
We are going to have the “Heads and Tails” game again with the flashing lights.
Southern Oregon chapter is going to do the “Wine Wall” again. We would like to get as many bottles donated as possible. Let me know if you can donate and how many bottles you can bring to the auction so we can keep track!
There are lots of ways you can help make this year’s auction a success: Email us if you want to help out.
Gather Items and donations! We want to focus hard on this for the next two weeks.
