NEEDED! AUCTION ITEMS & CHILI
 Donations are still needed. Donations may be brought to the office or fellowship hall beginning early in January, preferably the first week or two. It would also be helpful for us to know ahead of time what items we would be receiving if you plan to bring them in later. Please call the office to let us know or leave a note with Debbie or email your intended donation to gslschool@wi.rr.com. It will help in planning.

Suggestions for donations:
CHILI or chili ingredients, of course! A basic chili to add to the batch for our main dish.

And for the auction....

• Check with your employers, often items are available from overstock or perhaps businesses have set aside items or money for such purposes.
• Businesses you patronize that are unique or carry special lines might donate items of interest
• Service oriented businesses can often donate certificates
• Tickets to events
• Theme baskets (these baskets are based ona  theme - baby; at the movies; beauty, etc - and made up of products on the theme. They range in value from $25 and up.)
• Homemade items - baked goods, quilts, crafts
• Artwork - especially framed and matted pieces
• Antiques of any kind
• Used items can also make good donations (they should be in good to excellent condition - no broken or non-working items please)

Please let us know of donations as soon as possible. Plan now on attending this fun filled event. Donation receipts are available for your records. Supporting funds are being provided by Thrivent Financial for Lutherans - Walworth County Chapter. The designated project being funded is our Tuition Assistance Programs and our General Operating Fund. Many families continue to rely on this help with tuition and our school continues to rely heavily on donations in order to meet our operating budget.
