Attention Roosevelt Families! Roosevelt ’s Mardi Gras & Spring Auction

Saturday, April 30th, 2016 5pm-10pm Save the date and get ready for a GREAT night out for the best cause – our kids! This year’s auction extravaganza will be a Mardi Gras Party, chock-full of fun and useful items for every budget, not to mention tasty food and drinks, excellent music and great company. If you’ve never been, make this the year.

We hope everyone will be able to come, but no matter what: We need your help.

Donations that come from Roosevelt parents and their extended network of friends, family, and work associates are some of the most outstanding and popular items at the auction. So here are a couple of simple ways YOU can participate: ! Donate an auction item. You may not think you have something “auction worthy”, but we’l l bet you do! Perhaps you have a special skill (computers, rock climbing, graphic design?), a vacation property, sporting event tickets, fine art, or handmade items? Maybe you like to cook (cupcakes for a birthday party, homemade meals, desserts or jams). Or maybe plan parties, teach tennis, or scrapbook, any skill? You can offer to teach a group or your services for bid. All of these (and much more) can become a hugely successful auction item or Pay-to-Play event. If you’re considering something, let us know or ask us for help.

! Take a moment to ask your employer or your favorite local business for an auction donation. This could include a gift certificate, a facility tour, sporting event or performance tickets, gift baskets, etc. It’s that simple. Thank you all for any help you can provide. Your participation is really what makes our school and our children succeed. Keep an eye out for t icket information and more details next month. See you at the auction!

Best regards, Roosevelt Auction Committee Roosevelt Auction Committee 2016 rooseveltauction15@gmail.com or 510-507-0109
