Aside
from
the
Annual
WIB
Scholarship
Awards
luncheon,
the
Auction
is
the
most
important
luncheon
of
the
year.
The
auction
is
how
we
obtain
the
vast
majority
of
the
scholarship
money
we
award
to
deserving
women
in
our
community,
who
are
working
on
their
education
and

paths;
it
is
also
one
of
the
ways
YOU
PERSONALLY
CAN
MAKE
A
DIFFERENCE!
If
you
haven’t
had
the
opportunity
to
solicit
donations,
please
make
time
in
the
next
week
to
work
on
obtaining
items
(need
forms
turned
in
by
Thursday,

Remember,
large
and
small
items
are
appreciated
–
we
need
a
variety
of
both
for
the
silent
and
live
auction.
(Because
our
corporation’s
firewall
treats
many
email
addresses
as
spam,
it
would
be
best
if
you
would
fax
(435.716.2324)
your
form
to
me
rather
than

Thank
you
all
for
making
time
in
your
busy
schedules
–
it
takes
effort
from
all
of
us
to
make
the
auction
a
success!
