2011 District 5 Winter Round Up Gift Basket & Baked Goods/Homemade Craft Silent Auction
Whooo-hoo! Possibly the most exciting, fulfilling day this winter is almost here! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we are changing it up a little and are having a Gift Basket AND Baked/Frozen Food/Homemade Craft Silent Auction to support District 5 and functions that affect our District.
We are asking your group to donate a basket, but are also encouraging individuals to donate an auctionable item(s) as well. The individual donations do not necessarily need to be a part of the group’s gift basket. Get together with your friends and schedule a making/baking/basket assembly party!! We have had so much success with the talent that is so abundant in our fellowship. We've had art, photographs, sailing lessons, fiddle lessons, Spirit Fairies, apple cake, hand knitted scarves, crocheted blankets, terrariums, dog treats, frozen dinners, hair cuts, and many, many other items. The spa, coffee, tea, knitted/crocheted items, gardening, pet, Al-Anon literature, food, breakfast, soup, cookies/sweets, movie, spiritual, good luck and book themes are all great ideas for your donation. The Pet basket last year was an absolute hit!!!! Keeping the basket theme to a “spiritual/serene nature” is encouraged. Put on your thinking cap and donate your specialty for the auction. You may be very, very surprised to see how much your item brings in for District 5!!
If you have any questions, please post as a comment to the blog and I'll answer as best I can.
Thank you for all that you do!! All contributions are sincerely appreciated!
Please forward this along to everyone in your addressbook who is a member of Al-Anon. I look forward to seeing you on January 22!!
