2014 Providence Champagne Luncheon & Style Show by Jenny Peel, Providence Foundation Director of Annual Giving Spring is almost here, which means the Providence Style Show is near! Join us on Friday, March 21st for the 2014 Providence Champagne Luncheon & Style Show at the Waco Convention Center. Doors open at 10:30 a.m. for guests to enjoy a mimosa or two, shop the Providence Volunteer Services Gift Shop and stock up on Luxury Raffle tickets. They will also enjoy a delightful lunch catered by George’s Restaurant, the chance to win door prizes and—the reason (aside from the champagne) that we’ll all be there—to be dazzled by the models strutting down the runway and showing off spring fashions supplied by nine retailers in town! Luxury raffle prizes included a Tag Heuer watch set ($4000 value) donated by Boozer’s Jewelers, a $3000 spa package courtesy of NuGenesis Medical Spa, a $1000 shopping gift card courtesy of Dillard’s, a $2000 travel voucher courtesy of Allen Samuels House of Travel and a 6 month lease of a 2014 MercedesBenz E350 generously provided by Mercedes-Benz of Waco ($12000 value). Tickets can be purchased for $20 each or six for $100 and they are available for presale online at www.providence.net or by contacting the Foundation office (751.4762). The drawing will be held following the final scene of the fashion show, and the winner need not be present to win. Tickets to the show are currently available for purchase, too! Individual tickets are $60, or you can snag a table of eight for $480. Buy your tickets now to guarantee your seat at one of the best spring fundraising events in Waco. We hope to see YOU there on March 21st!
