Why a costumed "Witches" Event?

  Because we miss being able to dress up for halloween!  And, because we are all party planners at heart, we decided to create a fundraiser packed with activities that women enjoy and can afford.  Too many fundraisers are expensive with dinners and speakers!

We wanted to be different!
