If the organizations involved and the cool idea isn't enough to get you out tomorrow night, consider that this is not one of those $50.00 a ticket fundraisers that excludes people who can't afford it. This is something everyone can participate in.
These are the types of efforts I support.

Our Sip into the Holiday benefit was a HUGE success! We raised double our dollars from last year and with the economy as it is that is quite an accomplishment.
Many thanks to our Auctioneer the Honorable Judge McMonagle, Sharon Kinsella-for keeping the party going, Gary Rice and Phil Florian for providing music, Linda Goik of Local Girl Gallery for her generosity to the community, Barbara Michel for keeping up with the details, the Group from Family Haven--an inspiration to us all, and of course our Artists....!
We are already planning for next year!
Next event LIA will be teaming with Family Haven for a dessert tasting & Auction called "Save Room for Dessert" on Valentine's Day at Local Girl to benefit Family Haven. Local Artists will be painting dessert dishes this time. Mark your calendars!
