Monday, March 23 – Ladies Day Out in the Brooke

Save this date for SaddleBrooke One’s truly unique event: our fifth “Ladies Day Out in the Brooke!” We have taken the best from the past four years and are making it even bigger and better. This year’s beneficiary will be the SaddleBrooke Pet Rescue Network, a very popular and viable organization in our community. In years past all proceeds benefited the SaddleBrooke Coalition Against Domestic Violence (SCADV). Thanks in part to the very generous backing of the vendors and the supporters of this event, SCADV has accomplished its original goal and was dissolved at the end of 2014. SCADV wholeheartedly supports the move to this new beneficiary and thanks you for your past contributions.

Tickets are only $10 and go on sale February 11 at 9:00 a.m. in the SaddleBrooke clubhouse foyer. The event is considered an open house so you can attend any time between 1:00 and 7:00 p.m. Come and see for yourself why this special day is always highly anticipated and well attended. Delight in browsing and shopping the wide variety of vendors, try your luck at winning any of the great and unique raffle items, and enjoy a refreshing beverage and delicious food that will be available for purchase. Invite your mother, daughter, sister or friend! You will be very happy you did!

All ticket sales are final. No refunds or exchanges.
