GREAT GALA!
TIME FOR LIVE AUCTION ITEMS!

Live Auction... Most popular item: according to Debby Doig, Gala chair, vacation destinations are one of the most popular live auction items.  So if you have access to a cabin, condo, time share you'd like to donate, bring it on.  Or maybe the winner could go out to Palm Beach and stay with Judy Rooney & Ernie! 

Great restaurant gift cards

Bucket list-type experiences (last year we had 'climb a 14er' and 'Bee Experience')

"I have tried raising money by asking for it, and by not asking for it. I always got more by asking for it."  -Millard Fuller

 
PEACHES FOR EVERY COURSE!
With the versatility of peaches, how can you NOT sell them to your friends?  Take a look at these recipes, then tell me there are too many peaches in a box, you can serve them with every course!  We've got just over 2 weeks to sell as many as we can for this major fundraiser, so talk to your friends, sell boxes to coworkers, those of you living at Windcrest, share a box with your neighbors, single households? You can freeze 'em.  Go, go, go!
