FDW Fundraiser - May 22nd

We hope to see you at our upcoming outdoor fundraising event and donor celebration! We know in-person events have been few and far between over the last year, and we're taking extra precautions to keep all our guests safe and having fun.

First, we are keeping attendance very low - well below state guidelines - and capping tickets at 100 attendees. Phase 3 guidance allows up to 400 guests for outdoor events and Phase 2 allows up to 200. So even if Skagit County rolls back to Phase 2, we're well under guidelines and the event will take place as planned. Wisteria Gardens is a beautiful outdoor venue with plenty of covered space for indoor or outdoor dining. We'll keep you out of the weather, but have plenty of open airflow.

Second, we're keeping table settings small. We will be setting 8 or 10 person tables for 50% capacity and you can choose your tablemates! Just let us know who you'd like to sit with and we'll keep you together. Tables will also be spaced at least 6' apart.

Masks will be required, even though it's an outdoor event. We'll keep you well supplied with hand sanitizer and we'll have extra masks, too. Food service will be "take out style" with individual plated gourmet pizza and cupcakes. We're keeping drink service to individual containers almost exclusively. 

We hope you'll join us as we celebrate our story, thank our amazing donors, and look ahead to the excitement of the 2021-22 season. Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.

**If you're still feeling like you're not quite ready to return to in-person events, we totally understand. There is an option to show your support by donating online, and we can't wait to see you at our next event!
