This is a vendor event. We get crafters and vendors to bring their goods and sell them. During the event there is a silent auction. At the end of the event we do a live auction. Its a good time. It supports local small businesses, crafters, and vendors, as well as the 8th grade class. All the proceeds from the auctions and the vendors spots go towards the end of year events for the 8th grade. It is my goal to have their class events (trip, dance, etc)  paid for by this event. 

Below is a copy of the donation request letter. This can be sent if needed.
