Altrusa's annual Holiday Festival & Gifts coming November 18, 2011

This fundraising evening includes delicious "heavy" appetizers & desserts catered by Sweet Bites, wines from Corks Fine Wines, beers from Horsefly Brewery, and a marvelous assortment of decorated trees, wreaths, centerpieces, and a plethora of gift baskets for all occasions.

The decorated items will be on display in the lobby of Wells Fargo Bank all week leading up to this finale event. Stop by to view them and to place a bid in the silent auction. Bidding will close during the Friday evening event.

$20 suggested donation per person at the door (over 21 only, please) goes to our 501(c)3 Altrusa Club of Montrose CO Foundation. Altrusa of Montrose invests the funds raised to provide scholarships to local students, install & maintain Lifeline emergency notification units to seniors, support numerous literacy projects for all ages, provide Love Hug Bears for child patients at MMH, provide school supplies to local students, provide volunteers and award grants for numerous community non-profit projects, and much more.

New this year: trees are also available for viewing & bidding at Alpine Bank (E. Main), Bank of the West (E. Main), Timberline Bank, Vectra Bank, and at Montrose Memorial Hospital. These silent auctions will be open during business hours from Monday, 11/14 through Thursday, 11/17, and bidding will close that Thursday afternoon on these trees.
