An Auction and Dinner to Benefit The Neurological Resource Center
March 5, 2010, 6 PM to 10 PM
Three Rivers Convention Center
7016 West Grandridge Avenue, Kennewick, WA

Friday, March 5th at The Three Rivers Convention Center will be the biggest and best ever annual fundraising dinner and auction, Variété! This year’s theme Illuminate the Night will have us glowing, twinkling and sparkling. A few of the fabulous items we will have available are:
Back by popular demand: Dr. Scott Ostler has again donated a complete set of Orthodontic treatments. He has been so generous to us year after year. I hope many of you take the opportunity to thank him for his support.

Condo Anywhere In The World: Aloha? Buenos Dias? Bonjour?? Adventures await you! Choose one week in an RCI timeshare anywhere in the world at 4970 exciting locations.

Seattle: This auction will include several packages of fun in Seattle. Maybe a house on Lake Washington with fun things to do like visit the Woodland Park Zoo or the Museum of Flight is your idea of fun. Possibly a stay at the W combined with a Mariners Game or a trip on the Mount Rainier Scenic Railroad would be more to your taste. Whatever your fancy, go for it!

Maybe you would love to go east and explore the culture of Spokane. This trip will include tickets for the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture followed by a Spokane Symphony Classics concert.

If you are more of an outdoors fan, we will have a whitewater river rafting trip, sleigh rides, canoeing or snow-shoeing trips. Perhaps spend July 4th-10th at a beautiful cabin in McCall, Idaho. A week will not be long enough for you to explore beautiful Lake Payette, three natural hot springs resorts, the four 18-hole golf courses and the entire Payette National Forest. The cabin will accommodate four adults.

Kadlec Regional Medical Center has generously donated the fee for two to attend the popular Coronary Health Improvement Project (CHIP). CHIP is an eight-week program that is designed to help participants learn about diet, exercise, stress reduction and smoking cessation, among other topics. The program will tackle heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity and Type 2, or adult-onset, diabetes through lifestyle changes.

Alan Gottschalk has been donating beautiful art for the garden for many years. This year he has designed something new for us and wouldn’t it ever look great in your garden?

Artists of the Northwest Gallery Collection: Laura Gable, Bonnie Griffith, Ruth Stromswold, Lisa Hill, Kasia Gorski, Joanne Massingale, Marlene Kingman, Rick Roth and Marcia Wyatt have each donated an original or print of their work. NWGalleryCollection.org

Father Bruno Segatta donated original artwork for The Neurological Resource Center’s Variété 2010 Auction.

The acrylic on canvas entitled, Tuscany was donated by Father Bruno Segatta. His artistry and passion for living has been an inspiration to countless individuals over many decades, and his unshakable optimism and compassion has left a lasting impact on all who meet him. His humanitarian outreach efforts take him around the globe, from Africa to the United States and back to his native country, Italy. Father Bruno spent 23 years as the Dean of Students and art professor for the Gonzaga-in-Florence program; helping to make it the most successful study abroad program in Florence.

This original piece of artwork will be up for bid at the Three Rivers Convention Center Friday, March 5th, at Variété 2010 Auction and Dinner which benefits The Neurological Resource Center.
