Tootles & Noodles - Silent Auction Donations

The time for our annual Tootles and Noodles fundraiser is fast approaching on February 25th.  Therese Norris has agreed to organize the auction end of it.

We need as many of you as possible to solicit donations.  Attached is a letter that can be printed and given to vendors when asking for donations. It tells them about our organization and the event and gives them a tax ID # they can use to write off any donations they give. It also informs them of our plan to advertise their business at our event as a thank you for their donation.  You can also re-gift a holiday present or donate an item yourself.

The sooner we can get donations the better, as other schools are planning auctions in Feb. and March as well. The success of the event depends largely on this auction. All donations need to be taken to the band room for collection. Please include donor info. and worth of donation.   Donation form

Together we can make this a great event!  Therese Norris,   This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
