Great Gatsby Gala by Sally Heit, Auction Co-chair
The Gatsby Gala was the bee’s knees! Everyone turned out in their finest dresses, boas, and hats, and the laughter was contagious. After the evening was over the gym floor looked as if a flock of birds had molted from all the feathers!
On behalf of the Hope PTH, Sarah Nicol, and me, we extend our heartfelt thanks and gratitude to all of the Hope Staff, donors, sponsors, volunteers, and the fabulous auction committee in creating such an elegant and exciting event! After months of planning and working together to create the vision we had of this fun evening, we saw it come to fruition Saturday night and it was amazing! If you would like to see the pictures, Gail Ann Photography (link her page: http://www.gailannphotography.com/) has provided us with a link to view and download pictures from the evening. She caught some very special moments you won’t want to miss. Here is the link: http://epnw.phanfare.com/7195141. We also thank Hope parent and owner of Pellegrini Italian Market, Aimee Pellegrini, and La Rustica restaurant for catering a fabulous meal.
We realize many of you are wondering what our fundraising total is. This week will be spent reconciling accounts, processing checkout for some guests and tallying expenses. We should have an approximate total next week. We did have some items and experiences that were not purchased and we will make some of those available for purchase next week for those who may not have been able to attend. If you left some items behind that you purchased, please visit the office or email me (Sally Heit) to pick them up.
Again, thank you so much for a wonderful evening and for supporting Hope Lutheran School!
