Fundraising Update

Two things: Mondavi and Farmers Markets

Firstly, thank you so much to the ladies who helped out with the Salzburg Mozarteum event on October 28! It seems that most of you thoroughly enjoyed working with Marissa, the new Concessions Manager, so I'm really glad about that. I hope you had fun! Heard that Beryl and others got autographs from the cellist?

I have just signed up with Sodexo for Winter Quarter's Mondavi events. Out of popular request, I have chosen an event on a Saturday as one of the two dates that we have (so far), which works because Joshua Bell, the performer, is supposedly a Mondavi favorite. That will be Saturday, February 27. We'll also be working the Russian National Orchestra Mondavi event on February 18; we should see a rather good turnout.

Also, since Wednesday night Farmers Markets will not return to us until March 17 of next year, we'll have to do with Saturdays for now. Princess crowns feel a little seasonally out of sync, especially because the weather's getting colder, so I'm trying to think of something to do that's more weather appropriate and money appropriate. Ideas?!? I was thinking at first of different sorts of hot chocolate, but that may be competing with some other FM business. Maybe winter headbands? In UCD colors?

I'm also getting on restaurant fundraisers--sorry for being slow on that!
