A Big Shout Out to Local Businesses

November 25, 2011 in Donations, volunteering

A few of us have been working hard trying to round up donations for our two silent auction events and I just wanted to give a big thank you to all of the businesses and individuals who have so generously and willingly donated to our group.  Let’s try to support these businesses as much as possible as a way of giving thanks for all of their support!  Many of them are small business owners who could benefit greatly by keeping our shopping at a local level.  For a look at our (growing) list of donors and sponsors, please check out our 2011 -2012 Donor Page on the website.  Remember that we are still looking for donations and would love to have more parents and cadets involved in soliciting them.  All you have to do is hand them a donation letter and maybe chat them up a little bit about how great our group of kids is!!  Please contact me at pjkmitchell@hotmail.com if you have any questions or items that you would like to contribute to our events.  These two silent auctions are some of our only fundraisers.
