Irving’s Green Team is participating in the Re-Create Eco Art Exhibit, sponsored by Downtown Oak Park. The pieces are being displayed at DTOP businesses (this link has the list: http://downtownoakpark.net/special_pages/re_create.html) and you can vote for your favorite at those locations. The winners get a zero-waste pizza party! Announcement of the winners will be April 20, so be sure to go vote this week!

OPEF’s 19th annual William C. Staszak Award Benefit — on April 27, 2013 — will be more fun than ever! This year’s event will feature an open bar, carving stations, no assigned seating, and more exciting changes. The silent and live auctions will include unique items such as tickets to Jimmy Kimmel Live and Happy Endings tapings in LA, floor seats for the Rolling Stones in Chicago, vacation home stays, catered dinner parties and countless cool items for adults and children. We will also be raffling great Bears tickets and 64 GB iPad with Retina Display.
We’re so pleased to be honoring PING! (Providing Instruments for the Next Generation) with our host, local author and teacher Dan Greenstone. Questions? My contact info is below.
See you at the Staszak Benefit,
Deb
