Auction Items Needed
As in past years, we will be holding an auction of donated items at the Annual Awards Banquet & Meeting on Feb. 8, 2008. Your support of NICHA by donating auction items is appreciated. The auction always proves to be great fun for the evening. Call Jane Dunbar if you have any questions regarding the Banquet or Auction.
