Beach meets Far East fundraiser

Some fundraisers look and sound like they will be fun.  It might be the activity itself, but more likely, it is the people who are putting on the event.  For some reason, the Gulf Breeze Optimist Club members in their colorful bamboo hats look like they are ready to party.

The event is the annual fundraiser for the Pensacola Elementary School.  The theme is Beach Meets Far East.  The menu is Asian favorites such as potstickers, chicken satay with peanut sauce, sweet and sour pork, chicken and vegetable curry, and szechuan beef and broccoli.  Attendees are invited to wear Asian attire to the event at Flounder’s Chowder House on Tuesday, April 20 at 6 p.m.

Along with dinner there will be a raffle, silent auction and dancing.  Sounds like fun with a purpose.  Happy fundraising!
