Charity Event for All!

You are invited to a Sherwood Community event!

Chinese Auction Fundraiser

Thursday, April 2
6 - 8 PM
Drawings begin at 7:00PM
Sherwood Police Station

What is a Chinese Auction, you ask? Here's how it works: cost of entrance is $1 and something of value over $10. It could be a service, a handmade item, a vase, a gift basket... you get the idea. No gag gifts or used items please, unless of course it is an antique. Be creative! Upon entering, your gift will be exchanged for 6 tickets. All gifts will be placed on tables with bowls in front of them. You put your 6 tickets in the bowls in front of the items you would like to win. Then the fun really begins! We draw tickets to see who wins! Because 6 tickets are never enough, you can buy more for just $1 each, or 12 for $10. The following charities will benefit:

Tualatin Food Bank
Meridian Park Hospital
Tualatin Caring Closet
Boys and Girls Aid
Doernbecher
LDS Humanitarian
Sherwood Police Dept.
Avamere Rehabilitation Center

Everyone who enters must bring an item, and all are invited! This is a community event!

Come this Thursday to join in the fun, and feel free to invite your friends and neighbors. Anyone in the community who would like to help this charitable effort is welcome!
