The 25th Annual Fall Auction: We had a very successful first auction meeting. Everyone is excited to celebrate our 25th year
with our special silver anniversary theme "A Celebration of the Northern Californian Grape Harvest." We will have some new activities
at the auction this year, with more details to come. We still need some key positions filled including advertising. If you have a
knack in this area or are just interested in pitching in, please let any of the Auction Chairs know. Have a great summer and we look
forward to working with you this fall.—Liz Hughes, Paul Derksen and Cindy Lynds
