ARCOLA - After two years of COVID-19 and not 小蓝视频 able to plan a Ladies’ Night Out last year, we were so excited to be able to bring this event back.
The event was held March 12, with the theme of The Year you were Born.
I think everyone was so excited to be able to just get out and have fun again. This is our main fundraiser for the Arcola Daycare, so 小蓝视频 able to put it on again was huge. We count on all money raised to help with upgrades and general upkeep of the daycare. All the money raised goes directly back to the daycare to assist with upgrades and renovations.
We decided to go with something a little different for entertainment this year. We had Nathan Holten come from Regina and entertain us. He did a fabulous job of keeping the crowd engaged and involved with the help of our DJs from Coyote Entertainment. We had people up dancing in front of the stage and he was down interacting with the crowd which was great so see. It looked like everyone was really enjoying themselves.
We also had a large raffle, vendors and silent auction which is something we do every year. Another highlight of the evening is when we auction off local young men to work as table servers for the evening. Carlee Annis acts as our auctioneer, and the winning table (highest bidder) receives that man as their table’s server for the evening.
This year we had eight men who stepped up to help the daycare, and it looked like they had just as much fun with it as the ladies.
The supper this year was provided by The Happy Nun Café from Forget and it was delicious. I heard lots of compliments about the food.
An event like this wouldn’t be possible if it was not for all the hours that board members put in volunteering to make everything run smoothly. I can’t thank them enough for all the hard work they do. We are lucky to have wonderful families who step up and work shifts throughout the evening. We also have to thank the businesses for their generosity — purchasing tables, offering donations and sponsoring the event. This helps so much with our silent auction and raffle items.
Thank you to all the surrounding communities, as well as Arcola, for always supporting us. Thank you to everyone who came out and enjoyed the evening. None of it would be possible if it wasn’t for you.
