WELCOME TO THE NORWICH WOMEN’S CLUB
SPRING GALA AND AUCTION
It is with great anticipation, excitement and pride that we welcome you to the
2014 Spring Gala. This is the event that, with your help, will allow us to fund our
community grants that support so many worthwhile Norwich projects.
The enthusiastic response to this event has been gratifying. Last year, our
second annual Spring Gala, was a great success. As a result of the generosity of the
Norwich community, we were able to distribute more than $22,000 in community
grants. We are relying on the continued generosity of the Upper Valley community
to top last year’s results.
So many people have worked so hard to ensure the success of this year’s Gala.
I would like to offer a great big thank you to the Spring Gala Committee, the many
generous and creative donors to our auction, Ledyard National Bank for their finan-
cial support and to all of you who support our efforts.
We invite you to browse through the auction catalog and then join us for the
Gala. Have a drink with your neighbors and friends, feast on the delicious goodies,
and bid… and then bid again! Every winning bid will let you go home with something
to add to your house, provide you with a unique vacation, a fun experience, or an
unusual party or fabulous feast to enjoy with your friends or family. But even more
important, one hundred percent of every dollar raised will go back to supporting our
community through the NWC Community Project grants.
We would like to extend our congratulations to Cinny Bensen, the talented
and deserving winner of this year’s Norwich Citizen of the Year for Community
Service.
Have a great evening!
Deborah Hall
President
Norwich Women’s Club
