[IL-Talk] thank you Chicago Chapter

[David Meyer]

I forgot one very important thing. Thank you for those who contributed 
items to this years event. Had we not had so many items that were 
tasty, functional educational and redemable for so many good things, 
this auction would not have occurred.
Original message:
> Dear Chicago Chapter members,



> What a wild and productive auction we had today. I had a feeling we could
> make $1,000. I never dreamed that we would actually make $2,820, thanks to
> an additional donation beyond what the auction brought in.



> I'm not sure where to start, other than to say thank you to everyone. Thank
> you for working the auction table, thank you Ed and Geo for setting the tone
> for a great time and finding a way so many times to get an extra $5, $10 or
> $20 on so many items. Finally, thank you to those who purchased auction
> items. If nobody would be willing to bid, an event like this would not be
> possible.



> I have been pushing pretty strong for good fundraising. This event went
> beyond my wildest dreams.



> So to those who purchased items, relax, make good use of your new items and
> enjoy them with pride and pleasure.



> To everyone, have a merry Christmas, happy Quanzza, happy Chanukah and let
> us keep on keeping on next year, and the years to come.



> Love to all,



> David Meyer, NFB of Illinois

> Coordinator and Channel Administrator, NFB-NewsLine
