At our September 30 meeting, Christy Biella demonstrated decorating techniques to appreciative Altrusa Club members in preparation for our annual Holiday Festival & Gifts fundraiser. Christy, whose background includes graphic design and floral design, created a beautiful wreath, candle centerpiece, and tall centerpiece right before our eyes.
This year's Festival will be held on Friday, November 20, 2009 starting at 6:15 PM at Wells Fargo Bank downtown. Businesses and individuals may "sponsor" a wreath, centerpiece, or tree with a donation to Altrusa International Foundation of Montrose, a 501(c)3 organization. For more information on sponsorships, please contact Dena at 249-4702.
Members of the community are invited to attend the Festival, enjoy food and beverages, and bid on decorations and gifts during a silent auction. Admission to the event is a donation of $10 at the door, and attendees will receive a wine or beer glass to use during the event and to keep as a memento. All proceeds benefit Altrusa International Foundation of Montrose, and enable us to provide our many community services, scholarships, and grants.
