Gourmet Dinner Fundraiser

Our fundraiser progressive dinner draw was a big success last year raising $3,300. So we have decided to organize this again. This year it is being called "Cobble Hill Gourmet Autumn Feast". It will feature food and wine from the Cowichan Valley. Again it will be a dinner for 6.
Tickets are $20 each or 5 for $80.00. They are in books of 5. If anyone could help out by taking a book and selling them to their friends, family or co-workers we would greatly appreciate it. Last year's winner told me that the evening was amazing and the dinner in her own words was "absolutely fabulous" and she said that they are still talking about it. It was a five course meal and began with appetizers.
Joe Schuckle the chef who prepared last year's fabulous meal has offered to do it again for us. Thanks to Joe.
The money raised from this dinner draw will be used towards our literacy and sewing programs which we wish to continue and expand to help more women.
The draw will take place on August 15th.
Again Monica and Anne are helping to organize this. Please email or phone us if you would like to help by selling tickets or buy a ticket. My phone number is 250-746-8936 or email me at nepeducation@yahoo.ca
As always a big Thank You to aforementioned people for helping with this.
