Many thanks to our Parents at Valmatti for their Generous Donation of the awesome hats and accessories. Thanks to Jacaranda for their donation of the coffee and cakes.

CALL FOR DONATIONS!

Greetings Gardnerville Community,

Please save the date for "Gardnerville’s Spring Fling", Friday May 6^th 2011 at the historic Formosa Café!

In order to make it a successful night (in addition to a super fun one), we need you to solicit donations from local merchants.  It's easy: ask your child's instructors, favorite camps, your hair salon owner, your favorite restaurants, your masseuse, your landscaper, just about anyone with a business or skill. So many people are willing to donate if you just ask them. Gardner Street School wins when the items are auctioned off. Donors win when they acquire new clients!

Some donation ideas have included: swim lessons, spa and/or salon services, theatre tickets, hotel stays, cases of wine, designer clothing & accessories, free bowling, photography/portrait sessions, yoga and exercise memberships, fine dining as well as family restaurants, interior design consultations, teacher outings, you name it!  The possibilities are as endless as your initiative.

All donations turned in to the office by April 15th will appear in the Silent Auction catalog that all Gardnerville families will receive --- it's great advertising for the donors!

Attached is the Solicitation Letter as well as the 2011 Auction Donation Form to give to merchants. The forms can also be found on the Friends of Gardnerville website: friendsofgardnerville.blogspot.com.  

Tickets to this event will be on sale soon, watch for the invites!

Sincerely,

Your FoG Silent Auction Committee
