Thread: From the Heart to the Hip (IL)

Yay! The BIG day is tomorrow!
I am so excited for this.

Here is the Elgin PADS wishlist:
PADS of Elgin:Needs

and our guest of honor's list:
From the Heart to the Hip || Meet the Guest of Honor | Elgin PADS fundraiser | charity event Elgin, Chicago, Illinois, IL

See you tomorrow!

I'm headed out to get our guest of honor soon,
see you all in a few hours!

Oh, and just a reminder, this event is at Elgin Academy (Sears Hall), NOT the Sears Center... I've been getting some confused texts and phone calls.

350 Park Street, Elgin, IL 60120

1/2 block East of Dundee on Park Street, near downtown Elgin.

See you later! ,r:;

You ladies produced a marvelous show! Thank you for letting me be a part of it! Wonderful organization for a wonderful cause.

Fotia pretty much said it all...it was a wonderful show! I hope that it was successful as well. Thank you for organizing this event!

Also chiming in to say thank you to Zayna and Serafina for putting on such a great show! I'm so honored to have been part of such a special night!

Awesome show! Awesome time! Awesome cause! Serafina and Zayna hit it out of the park!! I hope it becomes an annual event.

.... and for all you early-to-bed types who turned down the invite to the Martini Room after, I have four words for you..

Thank you to everybody who made this benefit possible!

Martini Room? I had no idea, Ann Marie & myself would have been there!
next time!

Serafina will chime in about the total raised, ElginPADS is going to send her the inventory of what was donated.
I heard that about $1,400? was raised for ElginPADS
as wells as many donations- napkins, t.p, razors, clothing.....
Also about $75 was donated to our guest of honor Ann Marie.

Awesome Job Everyone!

I also forgot to add that one of the raffle prize winners handed over their
winnings to our Guest of Honor, gift certificates!
And she was also given a diabetic meter & test strips.
Thanks again everybody!

Did anybody get pictures of her speaking????

WOW! That is absolutely fabulous!!! WOOHOO!!!

And regarding the Martini Room...dang! Missed some tasty sounding cocktails

Yep!! They were yummy.. Had a blast.

I just saw some belly dancers on tv!
It was US! It was on 7:55am
I'm not sure if there will be a replay,
usually they do some shout outs at 9:35 also,
so if you missed it, it's worth a shot!
Here is the link once they post the clip to it:
