The success of the event was the direct result of the hard work of John and Pam Schindler
who organized both the silent auction and the clothing drive, solicited
donations for the silent auction and made sure that every auction item
received a fair bid! We thoroughly enjoyed working with the two of
them! Thanks John and Pam!
Our volunteers played an important role as well. Our thanks go out to Susan McKinney, Anne Henderson, Ellie Wakeman, Dotty Darrin, Lassie Smith, Teresa Leszczynski and Kay Stephenson who donated items for the silent auction and Janice Bond, Marge Vissers, Sara Dreiman, Lassie Smith, Nancy Bloomfield, and Kay Stephenson who helped staff the silent auction room and Marge Bessire, who was kind enough to help pick up all the donations at the end of the conference.
