2012 WIB Auction – Tuesday, October 9 Riverwoods Conference Center
Aside from the Annual WIB Scholarship Awards luncheon, the Auction is the most important luncheon of the year. The auction is how we obtain the vast majority of the scholarship money we award to deserving women in our community, who are working on their education and career paths; it is also one of the ways YOU PERSONALLY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
If you haven’t had the opportunity to solicit donations, please make time in the next week to work on obtaining items (need forms turned in by Thursday, October 4). Remember, large and small items are appreciated – we need a variety of both for the silent and live auction. (Because our corporation’s firewall treats many email addresses as spam, it would be best if you would fax (435.716.2324) your form to me rather than by email.)
Thank you all for making time in your busy schedules – it takes effort from all of us to make the auction a success!
Julie Sanders, 2012/2013 Past Scholarship Chair
