BRIAN’S TOP TEN REASON’S
HOW YOU CAN MAKE
THIS YEAR’S ART FOR KIDS’ SAKE AUCTION:
ARTRAGEOUS
THE BEST EVER!!
 
For those of you who have been in the school the past four years have seen PHS transformed.  It’s that time of year once again: Time for Art For Kids’ Sake.  Although the auction catalogue is not out yet, do preview the items on the website to get an idea of what’s being offered:

Like last year, I put together a list of a few things that you can be thinking about before you arrive at the auction to get into the mood of the proceedings.  Of course, it’s always good to think ahead, so here are a few “thinks” to think about, or “Brian’s Top Ten Reasons Why Art For Kids’ Sake “ARTRageous” will be the best event, ever:

10.  Who you gonna call? Well, there’s Grandma, Uncle Ned, or the High School kid down the street who used to eat paste in third grade (He’s cool now): It’s time to get a sitter.

9.  ‘Cause it’s good for you.  Hanging out and schmoozing with different parents, alums, and friends of the school may not make you healthy, wealthy, and strong like Wonder Bread used to claim, but it may show you that we are in one of the greatest school communities around.  That’s a good thing, right?

8.  Come nattily dressed.  After all it is theme is ArtRageous.  Think Gatsby, the Cotton Club, and anything that’s out of the box.  

7. You Can Dance. You Can Dance. You Can Dance.  For Inspiration.  Because once again, we’ll have one of the hottest bands on the planet (thanks to Rebeca Mauleon). 
6.  Everybody is welcome (and a good time will be had by all).  The PHS auction is a one-of-a-kind inclusive event, where all are invited and no one will be turned away.

5.  The early bird gets the trip to Tahoe.  Remember to RSVP ahead of time with your credit card information to facilitate a seamless effortless entrance and exit.  

4.  Take a look at me now. Take a look at the Art For Kids’ Sake website to see what you want to score: http://www.presidiohill.org/afks.  

3.  Remember the Sears Wishbook?  If not, the Art For Kids’ Sake catalogue will come close.  Preview the items that you want to bid on and get ready to buy to support the school.  

2.   Something to Chew On. Think about a teacher you love and supporting him or her; think about all of the cool field trips that you drive kids on and how getting into our big classroom, San Francisco, is a large part of what we do at PHS; and also think about those families who are at the school who wouldn’t be here if we didn’t give the level of financial assistance that we give.

1. The number one thing that you can do to make this Art For Kids’ Sake Auction the best ever is:  Have more fun than you can possibly stand!  After all, it’s all about having a great time with other adults and supporting the school.
We’ll see you at the Presidio Hill School Auction, Art For Kids’ Sake on Saturday, March 29th  from 6:30 until 10:30 PM!!
Namasté,
 Brian
