Red, Hot & Blue: An Evening to Benefit the Evansdale Education Foundation

The Evansdale Education Foundation will host its first spring fundraiser event, “Red, Hot & Blue” on April 16, 2011 at the Doubletree Hotel at Northlake.   The evening will feature a live and silent auction with a wide variety of products, gifts and unique experiences including hand-made art items by Evansdale students and special outings for students and teachers.  

 

    Guests can choose to kick-off their evening dining at Marlow’s Tavern, located inside the Doubletree Hotel from 5-7 p.m.  A portion of the evening’s receipts will go directly to the foundation.  Doors to the event will open at 7:30 where attendees will enjoy a cash bar, and sample chef-created desserts and a gourmet coffee bar.  Live jazz will complement the festivities led by Evansdale parent and musician, John Sandfort and his trio.    The auction will feature both live and silent components with the silent auction available from 8:00 to 9:30p.m. and our special live auction starting at 9:00 p.m.
