We're getting hungry thinking about all the delicious food we could be feasting on after the event! Speaking of feasts, a special shout-out to our Dave's Fresh Pasta, who will be providing us with mouth-watering treats the night of the event and is helping to sponsor The Bids & The Bees! At our last board meeting we had a great laugh watching this video from a national spelling bee: The English language has some seriously strange words, don't you think?
We've been having fun scouring the dictionary for some doozies to throw at our spelling bee participants at The Bids and the Bees, which is just over two weeks away! Don't forget to buy your tickets and check back on Friday for updates on some more great silent auction prizes. Did you know that attending The Bids & The Bees is good for your body and spirit?
It's true. Money from the event will go toward helping to fund amazing programs at the Center for Families, and we all know that giving to the community it good for the spirit.
