Dad's Weekend 2011!!

Dad’s weekend is almost here!  We hope your daughter has been communicating with you about the weekend activities at WSU and AXO. 

Each year on Dad’s weekend the Parents Club holds their semi-annual meeting as well as the Parents Club Auction.  The proceeds from this auction will be used to enhance the living experience for your daughter in the AXO house.   This past summer the Parents Club purchased much needed furniture for the AXO Formal room with funds from previous auctions and this year we have been provided with a “wish” list, which includes more furniture and equipment updates at the house.  More specifics will be provided at the Saturday morning meeting.  We encourage everyone to participate in this event as well as donating items and by purchasing during the live and silent auctions.

Again, we hope you will consider supporting the auction by donating and we are including a list of items that have been successful at previous auctions.   We always welcome new ideas, so use your imagination, and let’s have some fun!!  Dad, this is a great place to buy a gift for your daughter or wife!  For your convenience this year we will be accepting debit and credit cards at the auction.
  • WSU/Cougar themed baskets
  • Alpha Chi Omega items
  • Wine baskets
  • “Room” baskets for you daughter
  • Bath/Body basket
  • Holiday baskets
  • Snack food baskets
  • Designer baskets (Starbucks, Coach, Nordstrom, etc.)
  • Movie basket
  • Scrapbook basket
  • Sports basket (golf, football, basketball, etc)
  • Cocktail baskets (Margaritas, martinis, beer, etc.)
  • Car care kit
  • Game Basket (playing cards, board games, snacks, etc.)
  • Music Basket (Itunes cards, disco, rap, 70’s, etc.)

This is the first time the Parents Club has had a pre-weekend auction item:
