Thank you to everyone who came out in full force to revel and enjoy the 5th Annual Auction 2010, which was held at the historic 20th Century Women's Club in Eagle Rock. Over 200 attendees enjoyed the wonderful food prepared by our own culinary skilled Mt. Washington Elementary parents, Cajun style of course; listened and danced to the authentic and catchy music of Bonn Musique Zydeco; enjoyed a free massage; imbibed a drink or two prepared by our very friendly bartenders; and engaged in exciting bidding wars, hoping to win one of the beautiful baskets put together by our parents, or one-of-a-kind designed and made by our own Mt. Washington students and family members, or a jewelry or two handmade by one of our talented Mt. Washington artists, and other hundreds of items donated by parents, businesses and community members.
Most importantly, we are extremely grateful to all of our committee members and volunteers who selflessly donated countless hours, skills, talent, money, equipment, and then some, in order to make this event a great success. A special thank you goes to Ariella Roberts, for chairing the event. In addition to maintaining a full time job, and together with her husband, raising a 2 year old daughter and a 7 year old son, managed to take the reins and showed everyone that yes, we can do it!
We hope to see all of you next year!
