A Western Affair A Spring Night benefitting Owasso Community Resources Owasso Community Resources will hold their Annual Spring Benefit on Saturday, March 27th, from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. at the Bailey Education Foundation Auditorium at Bailey Medical Center. This semi-formal fundraising event will feature their customary silent and live auctions together with a formal seated dinner. A target of $50,000 is set for the benefit this year. All proceeds of the auction will go to support the programs serving the most disadvantaged families and individuals of our Owasso and Collinsville communities. This year’s event will be a Western Affair and all guests are encouraged to “Cowboy Up” as they support the programs they offer in the community. The evening will begin at 6:00 p.m. with a reception, hors d’oerves, and silent auction items in the Bistro. At 7:00p.m. a formal seated dinner will begin in the auditorium. And to cap off the evening a live auction will begin at 8:00 p.m. “We are very excited about the items we have already received and expect more things to be donated in the next few weeks,” said Tammy Laakso, auction committee chair. “All of the auction items are donations from Owasso and Collinsville businesses and individuals who support Owasso Community Resources and what they do for the local residents.” The Bailey Educational Foundation is sponsoring our “Bottomless Wine Glass” for $25 each. These are hand painted wineglasses and include free wine refills during the evening. Your attendance or donation will help Owasso Community Resources obtain the funds to support its programs such as emergency utility assistance, a food pantry, Back to School Supplies program for Owasso students, Angel Scholarship Activities Program, counseling for adults and children who are victims of domestic violence, Thanksgiving Baskets, and the Christmas Giving Tree. Your support will help us strengthen our community and support our mission of “Investing in our Community…One Life at a Time!” Tickets for the annual benefit are available at Owasso Community Resources for $100 per person and $175 per couple by calling 272-4969 or online at www.owassohelps.org/InvestInALife.
