Welcome

Welcome friends and families! Thank you for joining us to celebrate Creative Children Center’s 20th anniversary. Over the past 20 years, CCC has helped hundreds of children find their voice. CCC be- lieves in children and gives them the opportunity to succeed. Each child’s contributions and ideas are valued and nurtured. This philosophy encourages the students at CCC to be confident in their interactions with each other, teachers, and adults. Children learn to ex- press themselves in a constructive manner and work together as a team. My family has only been a part of the CCC community for 3 years. We continue to learn skills we can use for the rest of our lives. My son and daughter blossom in the environment at CCC. My cautious son learned to take risks and now believes the world will not end if he is wrong. Whether it’s answering a math provocation, reading, or expressing an idea, he is no longer timid when talking in front of a group of people. How many of us adults can say that! My daughter learned to lis- ten to other’s ideas, express her own, and then come up with a plan to suit everyone. My husband and I have learned to slow down, listen, and observe what the children are doing. By doing this we have a renewed appreciation of the students’ abilities. We can enjoy the pure enthusiasm and joy these kids have for life’s experiences and learning. Children are capable of great things if given the chance! I know CCC brought many families this same joy. Thank you for supporting our wonderful school. We hope you have fun tonight and always remember to take time and explore the world with your children and listen to their roar!

Thank you,

Sally Bland CCC Parent Isaac & Violet’s Mom

CCC Turns 20

Happy 20th Anniversary Creative Children's Center! You have been a wonderful place of learning for many, many children and adults alike! Your existence has created friendships. You have opened the door to new ideas. You have provided us with many challenges to overcome and you have built up our confidence in ourselves and in each other. Your anniversary is not about one person, or a couple, or even the thousands of children who came through your doors, rather your anniversary is a testament to the human capac- ity to learn, to grow, and to seek knowledge. You are not here alone. It took many to give you life, and many more to form your foundations. To the parents who have been with you along the way, we thank you for your caring and vision. To the teachers who molded you and created your pedagogy, we thank you for your love and dedication. To the children who supply you with your heart and soul, we thank you most of all, for it is you who truly have created a school worthy of celebrating twenty years. So here's to you, Creative Children's Center. Happy twenty years! May you live to be very, very old, filled with wisdom, prepared to question, and able to better yourself in the years to come! Hip, hip, hooray!

Lucy Chaillé Founder & Director Creative Children’s Center

An Auction Primer

Check-In Each person/family receives a bid number, found on the back cover of this catalog, upon registering at the check-in table on arrival. Only registered bidders may participate in the auction. You will use the catalog as your paddle during the live auction. At registration you have the opportunity to pre-check-out by providing your credit card information. You will only be charged if you win an item. This is a huge time-saver. How To Bid Read through the descriptions in this catalog to help you decide what you would like to bid on. Every item has an estimated value listed next to it to help you determine your bid. The easel parties and group experiences have the fixed price per attendee listed. Each item in the silent auction and super silent auction has a bid sheet taped next to it on the table. The bid sheet specifies the minimum value that can be bid, a minimum raise amount, and a guaranteed bid amount. If you want to bid on that item, clearly write your name and bid number on the bid sheet after confirming the description at the top matches the item you want. The first bid needs to be at least the minimum amount listed on the bid sheet. Subsequent bids must increase by that item’s minimum raise amount. Items in the silent and super silent auction also have a guaranteed bid. The first bidder to fill in the guaranteed bid amount, wins. The guaranteed bid supersedes any other bidding. To sign up for an easel party, clearly write your name and bid number on a ticket from the party’s board. Put the completed ticket back in the pocket but keep the reminder slip for your records. You may purchase as many available spaces as you want for a specific event. To bid during the live auction, raise your catalog (“paddle”) high to bid the amount the auctioneer has called. Wait until the auctioneer acknowledges you. If multiple people raise their paddles, the bid will go to the person the auctioneer sees first. The auctioneer will de- termine when bidding ends. The highest bid wins. Some items can have multiple winners. If You Win The winning bidder for a silent auction item is the person who has entered the highest written bid at closing time for the table unless someone bid the guaranteed amount. The closing time for each silent auction table is posted and warnings will be announced prior to each table’s closing. Note the color of the tablecloth and the balloons. Upon the closing of a table, a volunteer will collect the bid sheets and identify the winning bid for each item. This person has the authority to determine the winning bid and their decision is final. The winning bid number will be highlighted on the carbon-copy bid sheet taped to the table. If you are the winner of an item in the live auction, the auctioneer will announce your bid number as the bid winner. 8

Raise Your Paddle

“Listen to the mustn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts. Lis- ten to the never haves, then listen close to me… Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.” - Shel Silverstein Six years ago a little girl named Maggie May Williams was a student at Creative Children’s Center. She brightened our world with her smile and love to learn. Maggie May lost her life to cancer at the young age of three, yet her memory shines bright at Creative Children’s Center. One year ago we started the Maggie May Financial Aid Fund. CCC’s friends and families raised their paddles high to the tune of $6,000.00. Since that day the fund has been used to support children in financial need. Because of you, children who might otherwise not have been able to attend have done so, and no family has had to withdraw due to a job loss or family emergency. Over half of the fund has been put to work and tonight we call on you to build it up to our goal of $10,000. Maggie loved “her” school; her teachers, her friends, the classrooms and her playground. For us it is an honor to have Maggie’s name grace our financial aid program and feel that she would be happy knowing that others are able to share the school she loved. We have a flower garden planted for Maggie at CCC. It’s filled with sunflowers reaching far up to the sky. Give what you can and it will pay itself forward! Treasure Keys & Golden Tickets

Like to take chances? This year’s auction has two opportunities for surprise fun! Open the treasure chest with your treasure key! There are only 100 keys available for purchase and yours might just be the one to open the treasure chest at the end of the evening! There is guaranteed to be something wonderful inside! Purchase treasure keys for only $5 at the registration table or buy three for $10! Choose any item from the live auction if your Golden Ticket wins! What makes this ticket golden? Well, actually you’re the one that’s golden if you find the this ticket in your box of Cracker Jack. The Golden Ticket is your pass to select anything in the live auction before the bidding starts. There’s just one Golden Ticket and only 30 boxes of Crack Jack available, so the odds are very good! Cracker Jack boxes may be pur- chased for $100 each at the registration table until the live auction opens at 7:45 pm!
