Description

This is our 4th Ladies Night Out/Silent Auction. We partner with local spa type businesses in the area to have a pampering night where ladies can thrift for FREE clothes, eat luxurious desserts, have a simple updo, mini manicure, neck and shoulder massage, get their picture done in our photo booth and browe our silent auction. We sell advance tickets for $20 and when they come in the door the rest is free except for silent auction items. We sell out before the event. We set up our silent auction up 3 weeks before in the library to get the bidding started and it ends at the actual event. I put up a list of all our company supporters on our website,  in the library during the event and for a month after.  This event allows us to purchase items on our wishlist for our patrons so we can serve them better. 

Many patrons see the list in the library, on our website and at the event. 150 people are at the event and many come through the doors every day with an average of 600-850 people a week. I appreciate any support you may be able to provide. 

Sincerely,

Kathy Cook
