Komen Puget Sound honors its most generous donors with the Circle of Grace designation to recognize their passion for helping others. Each member has a personal reason for donating at this level; ours is to ensure that children and families don’t have to experience the pain and loss of a mother, sister, daughter or loved one to breast cancer.

Members of the Circle of Grace provide resources for lifesaving breast cancer screening and support programs that might otherwise go unfunded. We give real hope to underserved people who otherwise have little or no access to care. For example, in 2015, we were able to provide 9,685 mammograms to women in the Puget Sound area who otherwise would have never been able to afford this essential and critical diagnostic tool. Circle of Grace members also allocate significant funds to research focused on aggressive and metastatic breast cancers.

We invite you to join us in the Circle of Grace with your annual gift of $10,000 or more to Komen Puget Sound. Your generous donations will provide immediate and substantial life-saving impacts for local women who are facing this devastating disease, and will help fund research to ensure that future generations and their families will never again be victims of breast cancer.

Sincerely,

Vincent Claudio and Lisa Hammel Co-chairs, Circle of Grace

Heads or Tails – Chance GameLet’s start the night off with a fun interactive game – Heads or Tails!

Here’s how it works: Each guest has the opportunity to purchase entry to the game, a blinky ring for $50, during the cocktail reception.

Auctioneer Fred Northup, Jr. will ask everyone with a blinky ring to stand, then to select heads or tails. Designate your choice by placing your hands on your head for heads, and your hands on your bum for tails. Fred will flip a coin and whichever side lands up, those players continue in the game while everyone else sits down. This process continues. Once the field is narrowed to the last two players, one selects heads and the other selects tails for the final coin flip to determine the winner of our game.

The winner of Heads or Tails will receive a $1,000 Expedia Gift Certificate.

Expires November 30, 2018, applies only to stand-alone hotel bookings.

Your mission to help save lives and end breast cancer forever is an inspiration to our entire community.

ITEM NUMBER | 4

Pablo Picasso – LysistrataPablo Picasso is likely the most famous artist of the twentieth century. Before the age of 50, the Spanish-born artist was the best-known name in modern art, with the most distinctive style and eye for artistic creation. Few artists have had such an impact on the art world – or have attracted such a following of fans and critics alike.

The comedy Lysistrata was written in 411 B.C. Athens and Sparta were at war for 20 years, and Lysistrata tried to end it by insisting that all Athenian women leave their conjugal beds until the men stopped fighting. Picasso was commissioned to illustrate the English version of the book in 1934. Picasso’s signature style of simple, elegant lines and expressive sensuality seemed to be a perfect fit for the ancient classic, which, though comedic in nature, also offered a prescient backdrop for Picasso’s own anti-war paintings a few years later.

During his career, which lasted more than 75 years, Picasso created thousands of works, not only paintings but also sculptures, prints, and ceramics, using all kinds of materials. Now is your chance to add a piece from this famous artist to your collection!

Leonetti: A Coveted Spot on the List with FIGGINS and Leonetti Magnums!Founded in 1977, Leonetti Cellar is Walla Walla Valley’s oldest winery. Leonetti Cellar has been producing some of the most sought-after wines in the world under the careful eye of the Figgins family. Specializing in Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sangiovese and a Reserve blend in the most exceptional vintages from grapes grown primarily in the deep loess soils of Walla Walla Valley’s hillside vineyards, Leonetti has received lofty ratings by international wine media and its vintages are ranked among the best in the world.

The winery, generally not open to visitors, is one of the most beautiful in the state. Access to the winery and wine sales are facilitated through a private mailing list on an allocated basis, once per year. Leonetti wines consistently sell out upon release, so a spot on “the list” is highly coveted.

Jules Cheret: Winter 1894-1895French painter and lithographer Jules Cheret is a master of poster art, he is often thought of as the father of the modern poster.

Born in Paris to a poor but creative family of artisans, a lack of finances meant Jules Cheret had a very limited education. At age 13, he began a three-year apprenticeship with a lithographer before his interest in painting led him to take an art course at the École Nationale de Dessin.

As his work became more popular and his large posters displaying modestly free-spirited females found a larger audience, pundits began calling him the “Father of the Women’s Liberation.” The text on this work reads “Winter 1894-1895, Wednesday, January 16, student’s ball at the Closerie des Lilas (Bullier ballroom) tickets at the office of the Student’s association…”

Maserati Overnight Getaway at the Alderbrook Resort & SpaSlide into a Maserati for a Friday-Saturday driving experience and getaway to the Alderbrook Resort & Spa! A scenic two-hour drive takes you to Alderbrook. It’s close, yet worlds away.

For your getaway, Maserati of Seattle will hand over the wheel of a 2018 Maserati Levante SUV. Levante is “The Maserati of SUVs” which means it stands apart, delivering dynamic performance and driving exhilaration wrapped in a stunning Italian design. Sleek, coupe-like lines, its Trident grille and athletic stance make a statement of style, sophistication and power unlike that of any other. Levante is bred to deliver total driving excitement, at 424 horsepower, combining the comfort of a luxury sedan with the power of a Ferrari built 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 engine.

The Levante is an exotic class of SUV that places no limits on its driver’s desires and preferences, revolutionizing the concept of customization in the sports SUV segment. Constructed with the utmost attention to detail, every Maserati is a masterpiece of Italian design. At Maserati of Seattle, family owned and operated, they understand what it means to reach for your goal.

Breast cancer screening can help find breast cancer early, when the chances of survival are highest. Screening is important

for all women, no matter their level of risk. Susan G. Komen believes all women should have access to regular screening

mammograms when they and their health care providers decide it is best based on their personal risk of breast cancer. In

addition, screening should be covered by insurance companies, government programs and other third-party payers.
