Last week’s storm
left HSP without the ability to update our blog for several days, but that
certainly didn’t stop noteworthy events from happening. Among the many exciting
things that happened in the past few days was the Naperville Junior Woman’s
Club Fashion Show! The show was the club’s 40th annual fashion show,
which was held at the Drury Lane
Theater on Saturday the 20th. The
show’s theme was Four Decades through Hollywood ,
and featured fashions from local stores and designers modeled by children,
members of the Naperville Junior Woman’s Club, and professional models. As the
chosen charity for the club’s Community Improvement Project, some of the
funding from this event will go directly to the needy seniors and children
served through our many projects.
On
top of all the fashions being displayed, the event also included a lunch, a
silent auction, a raffle, and after party. Kristin Maxwell, HSP’s Assistant
Executive Director, said the silent auction was “absolutely huge” with more
than 100 different items. The raffle was also very exciting with grand prizes
being spa packages, diamond earrings, a fur, and more. Over 400 people attended
the show including Naperville Mayor George Pradel. The Naperville Junior
Woman’s Club really went to great lengths to put on such an amazing event. As
one of the benefactors of the event HSP wants to thank issue a huge thank you
to them, and everyone who made the event such a success!
