Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

What an event! It was a whirlwind night for all as we auctioned off the donated items our gracious community sponsors gave to support Sisters Elementary School and Sisters Schools Foundation. Through their generous donations, those of the lucky auction winners, and all the attendees, we netted almost eight thousand dollars to give our children the special experiences that make learning in Sisters different from most other communities.

Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you!
