Paris-Themed Fundraising Event

Conway, AR - The Women’s Shelter of Central Arkansas board members and staff are asking people to join them in Paris this year for The Great Escape.  It’s really just the Conway Expo Center and Fairgrounds but the fundraising event will have a Paris theme.  Annette Miller, chairwoman of the event’s fashion show, said the Toad Suck Queens choose a theme each year for The Great Escape.  “This is Come to Paris,” she said. “We’ve got a runway that’s going to go down the middle of the Expo Center, and we’ll have an Eiffel Tower. It’s going to be all lit up.” Booths will include those with educational materials, as well as jewelry, makeup and clothing vendors.  “Someone will be wheeling around red roses, selling them,” Miller said. There will be a fashion show, a silent auction and lots of vendors, featuring several Conway businesses.  www.fundraising-ideas.org
