March 27, 2010 - Ski Vorlage, Wakefield
Over $9,000 was raised for the Wakefield Community Emergency Fund!
Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to the many volunteers, businesses, bands and individuals for their generous support of the WCEF Silent Auction and Dance event held on Saturday, March 27, 2010.
Very special thanks go to Vorlage for the use of the hall, to the musicians: Burnside, Terry Cromwell and J. Dog & the Rockin' Hounds who entertained us, and to the Low Down for their continued support.
Your donations will help support the Jamison-Bowie family, and others, over the upcoming year.
