Good afternoon everybody,
This
year's CenCal Professional Development Seminar (PDS) is right around the
corner. It will be taking place on Oct. 8th & 9th. As the
fundraising committee chair, I will be responsible for the Silent Auction
being held on Thursday, October 8, 2009 and I would like to ask for volunteers
to assist me with some of the duties.
I
would need individuals to assist with the following easy tasks:
-
Decorating room in which Silent Auction will be held
-
Collection of Silent Auction items on Wednesday, October 7, 2009 and the
morning of Thursday, October 8, 2009
- Monitoring
Silent Auction Tables throughout the day (could be done in shifts of two, you
and a friend J)
This years theme for the Silent
Auction will be “California Dreamin’.” Please refer to the attached
flyer for more information.
The Professional Development
Seminar is being held in Fresno; therefore, it is almost the center of
California. This theme, “California Dreamin’”encompasses the whole state
of California and what it is known for; therefore, here is a list of some of
the examples of what you can donate for the Silent Auction in the form of
baskets, wrapped items, and/or open items:
-
California Wine basket
