 Welcome to 2007! We wish you a healthy, happy and prosperous year! To start off the New Year on a great note, thank you to all who participated in our Holiday Charity Benefit efforts in December. This year, Painted Parrot was a gracious host to 105 guests at the Benefit. We sold out of our gift certificate tree within 1 hour making it a very popular offering! Many attendees and others donated wrapped "White Elephant Gifts" for our auction. The unique nature of the auction was a lot of fun and we think that we have found the White Elephant of 2007 to display at next year's event. With all of your generous donations and purchases of gift certificates and auction items, we raised just over $5000.00 this year!!! With that money, we purchased gifts for 40 needy children and 50 needy seniors. Additionally, we purchased 177 food gift cards that were distributed to needy families and seniors in our communities. What a great way to end the year and start a new year! I would like to especially thank our Sponsors, Anchor Bank and Hub South as well as the larger donors including: the West Allis Professional Police Association, Dr. Frederick Walker, Sharon Larson, Majdecki's Sentry, and the many West Allis City Employees who made donations Of course, thank you to Greg and all of his staff at the Painted Parrot. The food and drink were great as was the atmosphere!
Congratulations to our 2007 Business and Citizen of the Year, and please join us to recognize them at our Annual Breakfast!
