Bid cards held high are a wonderful thing to see at an auction so I thought I’d start with that…

Of course we also captured a portrait of all the event coordinators who’ve been working for months…

A balloon pop – in action!

This was one of the auction items  – sewn by the kids of a First grade class…

And of course I offered free portraits of all the attendees…

The good news is they made lots of money to use for school programs and I met a lot of really nice people!

The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service”

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
