Heather from the Soroptimist Club files this report about Bunko Night last month:
The Bunko After Party:
When Soroptimist Friday Harbor found out that San Juan County has one of the highest cancer rates in the United States, they decided to do something about it, and began their Cancer Support Mission.
This program, among other things, helps provide ferry tickets to San Juan Island residents who need-off island treatment.
On April 30, the Spring Bunko Event, attended by more than eighty people, brought in $3,131 for the Cancer Support Mission. What a success! Once again this community has come together to help other islanders. Thank you to all that attended, and thank you to those who donated goods and services for prizes and gift baskets:
The Hot Shop
Sandpebble
In-Style Salon
West Marine
Serendipty Books
Ace Hardware
Spa D’Bune
Compost It
Café Demeter
Captain Jim Maya
Whidbey Island bank
Sandbar Soaps (Heather Cain)
Focused Body Work (Denise Salsbury)
Café Feminino (Soroptimist Friday Harbor)
Bunko Night will be a repeat event, so for those bunko fans who couldn’t make it, and those who would like to join in on the fun for a good cause, keep your eyes peeled for future dates!
