FIREBIRDS FOR FORT

Happy Friday Everyone!

It's been awhile since the last post and I just wanted to send a shout out to everyone regarding our upcoming Firebirds for Fort scholarship fundraiser. The donations have been coming in steadily and folks are being very generous! If any of you out there have any leads on possible donors please shoot me or Pam an email or feel free to line it up yourself...whatever is easiest. We will really take anything...food, drink, gift certicates, products, services, or monetary contributions. The more we have the more we can raise! We would love to start out this fund with a good size nest egg so that we can make sure that it will last for way longer than any of us do :-)

In regard to details of the event...here they are:

WHERE: IUE Hall on Woodman Drive
WHEN: October 17, 2009
TIME: 6pm-midnight
COST: $20 per person which includes door prize entry, party favor and ALL you can eat and drink
*various auctions for some amazing gifts...cost will vary depending on value of item! Raffle prizes called throughout the event!
*DJ music and dancing!
*Cards, cornhole, and tons of fun!
MORE SPECIFICS TO COME

We will be selling tickets in advance of the event. The blog and facebook will be updated when we are ready to start selling. The more the merrier...Fort still has a story to tell and we are responsible for passing it along while she's not here!

If anyone out there is interested in bringing a side dish or snack that would be fabulous! Just post a comment here or shoot me an email...awarner24@yahoo.com

Hope everyone has a great weekend! And hope to see you all at the fundraiser! Thank you!

PS-Fort...sorry for screwing with your blog, but its for a good cause! I miss you and love you!
