Become an Ambassador!<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

Lo<\/span>oking for a way to get involved at the Playhouse in ways that don’t r<\/span>equir<\/span>e the comm<\/span>itment of being a board member? How about serving as a Playhouse Ambassador<\/strong>?<\/span><\/span>Throughout the year, we have many opportunities to go out into the community to spread positive awareness about GiGi’s Playhouse and Down syndrome in general. We’re looking to create a team of Playhouse Ambassadors who can help us to ensure we don’t miss an opportunity.<\/p>\n

What does being a Playhouse Ambassador entail? Mostly enthusiasm and willingness to speak to others about the Playhouse. (Note: we’re not talking about public speaking, most of these opportunities involve staffing a table or booth at events.) Ambassadors may also be asked to write personal thank you notes to generous donors.<\/p>\n

It’s a great opportunity to share the Playhouse with the general public, without making a huge time commitment. We’re looking to get a team together soon, as our first event is coming up on February 4 (the Neighborhood Parent Network’s Developmental Differences Resources Fair). Interested?

The Gala is Coming!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

What are you doing Feb. 25th? Come to our Second Annual International Gala<\/strong> at the Belevedere Banquets in Elk Grove Village. (Registration is $125, and is available online<\/a>.)<\/span><\/p>\n

The event is always a great time, full of fun, laughter and a great place to meet new friends and reconnect with old ones.<\/span><\/div>\n
In advance of the event, we’re looking for items for the silent auction. Some items that have worked well for us in the past include theater or sporting tickets, a hotel or spa gift certificate, dinner cruises and vacation housing opportunities (a summer home in Michigan, for instance). If you have a lead on any such items, let us know with a quick e-mail<\/a>.<\/span><\/div>\n
Also, we’re collecting wine for an “Instant Wine Cellar”<\/strong> to be sold through the Gala’s live auction. If, on your next visit to the Playhouse, you wanted to drop off a bottle of wine or two (we all have extras around the house), we’d appreciate it.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
