"Robyn" necklaces

Our committee is all decked out in our "Robyn" necklaces. You want one too, right? If so, please drop us a line and let us know. Orders processed prior to our event on 5/30/09 are $15 per necklace.

The necklaces were made possible by committee members Samantha and Michelle in loving memory of Robyn. Michelle painted the beautiful robin while Samantha coordinated the creation of of the necklaces with local artist Ann Shepard from "Such Pretty Colors." For every necklace sold, Ann will donate $10 to our cause. VERY impressive!

In addition to email orders, necklaces will be available for sale at our event on Saturday, May 30 at Conor O'Neill's. Details on how to purchase the necklace after our event will be available shortly.

My Fairy Door

Introducing Kids for the Cure!

New to our event in 2009 is Kids for the Cure of Cystic Fibrosis.

A portion of our silent auction will be dedicated to art submissions from children that are close to the cause - Robyn's daughter, children from our committee members, and CF patients'.

If your child is interested in submitting an art piece, please feel free to contact us.

For those attending the event, please be sure to stop by the kids table...we are thrilled that they are taking an active role in our cause at such a young age.

Update

Hello,

It is with a broken heart that I inform all of our Art for the Cure of Cystic Fibrosis supporters that my beloved sister, Robyn, lost her battle with CF on November 29.

We are all deeply saddened at this tragic loss, but will continue on with our mission to help find a cure...that's what Robyn would have wanted. She was so proud of this event and honored that her friends and family would come together on her behalf. We will continue the tradition in her memory.

Breathe easy dear Robyn...we love you!
XOXOXOXOXO
