Benefit Dinner is right around the corner

We are getting closer to our chili dinner and auction. We have our preliminary call from Baltimore with an estimated admit date for the week of Oct 19th. That is right after the dinner. So come one come all to see Makenna at the dinner, then we will be off......

I am posting our letter to businesses for donations for the dinner. Please feel free to pass this letter to anyone on our behalf for the dinner. In addition to donations for the dinner (food and supply wise) we are looking for auction and raffle items and most of all people to come EAT and shop with us. We NEED supporters that night to make this a huge success for Makenna. Remember our dinner is Saturday October 17th from 4-9 on the west side of Indy. Come help us support Makenna for her trip to Baltimore.

Remember to click on flyers to make them bigger. You can also save them to your desktop if you would like to print some to post or pass around
