This year's event will be a ‘hybrid’ of in person and online...Stay tuned for more details. We have some wonderful items available for auction and many fun raffles are planned. We would be grateful for any donations you can offer: gift certificates (restaurants, movies, stores, online shopping); personal care services (spa, hair stylist, manicurist, gym,); use of a cottage; tools; rounds of golf; lotto tickets; tickets to sporting events, concerts, and plays; jewelry; electronics; anything else you feel would be of interest to others!
