What is a Party-to-Go? This is a really awesome addition to our Silent Auction this year is what it is! You and any additional hosts are donating your time and money to throw a party/experience for others to attend. Those who want to attend pay a set amount that you decide upon. Please email Tierni Sulgrove if you have any questions.
