Hi Ladies,
It sure has been a crazy and busy summer. I really missed seeing you all at convention and summer board, but I had family commitments. My youngest daughter got married on July 25th, at Carolina Beach NC. Now I'm ready to get down to business of the GFWC of TN. Work.
First I would like to introduce the Fundraising committee
for the 2004-2006 GFWC of TN:
I, Sandy Lindeman, will chair this committee
Jr. Fundraising -- Cindee Barbarito
TN Endowment -- Kate Lapczynski
TN Headquarters -- Sherri Carroll
TN Dollars for Delegates -- Renee Keene
GFWC Fundraising -- Stacy Smith
1734 Society -- Matilda Bowen
The fundraising committee is in charge of raising the funds to keep the GFWC of TN functioning. I think we have some fun things in store for you and some neat items for you to purchase. At Fall Conference we will have sun visors, Charms and Iris note cards for sale.
Booths
We will be selling booths to individuals and clubs to sell items of
their choice. The booths would be a great time for clubs to sell cookbooks
etc. The booths will be $20 (for a table and 2 chairs) Saturday &
Sunday. If you want an additional table it will be $10 more. The form
is in this edition, deadline is September 1,2004 and payment must
be included.
White Elephant Sale
We will have fun with a White Elephant Auction. We are asking members
to bring something you have at your house that you don't want any
more. Maybe something you were given as a gift you didn't like, an
item you bought at another auction, etc. and we will auction them
off at an action Saturday night after the dinner. I think it will
be fun.
Dollars For Delegates
Dollar for Delegates is going to hold a silent action of Holiday decorations,
or baskets. We are asking each club to bring and item to use for this
fundraising. We won't ask again in the spring.
If you have any ideas that would be fun or you think would be a good idea to sell to raise money for the GFWC of TN let me know.
See you at Fall Conference
