NEW YORK JUNIOR LEAGUE’S 2009 SPRING AUCTION " APRIL SHOWERS BRING PARK FLOWERS " April 23, 2009

The New York Junior League (NYJL) presents its 10th Annual NYJL Spring Auction. This special evening, one of the NYJL’s largest fundraisers, includes a live auction, a silent auction, and a cocktail reception with hors d’oeuvres.

The annual NYJL Spring Auction generates vital funding for critical NYJL community service projects, including one of our signature projects, the Playground Improvement Project located this year in Morningside Park.

The 2009 Spring Auction will feature many exciting items including:
• Amsale shopping spree worth $6000 for any bridal or bridesmaid gown
• Dinner party from Stuart & Welch
• Four tickets to the Hampton Classic

This year’s Spring Auction will feature performances by Mass Transit, NYU’s coincidentally all-male a capella group and followed by Who’s Bad, the “ultimate Michael Jackson tribute band”.

Proceeds support the New York Junior League Playground Improvement Project and other charitable activities of the NYJL. For more information and to purchase tickets in advance visit the New York Junior League Spring Auction website at www.nyjl.org/springauction
