We are having an event next month, for which people are donating items for auction.

Our local state rep offered a certificate which allows the buyer to be a government page for a day.

The thank-you letter said "Thanks you for your donation of a "Page for a day".

I think I'll ask her to rephrase that one....

Taste of Elegance - a big-ticket ($85) dinner with food by dozens of the North Shore's snootiest restaurants. Raffle and silent auction - items range from the "BE a page for a day" to yoga lessons, art glass, and gift certificates for everything from tooth-whitening to jewelry. All proceeds to benefit the American Cancer Society.

It's actually in Mid-March, in Northbrook. For more info, wendy.zdrodowski@cancer.org

I work for the American Cancer Society as my "day job". I'm the receptionist/admin at the Evanston office.
