tion event. Artesia, an exquisite lux-
ury condominium development in
Sunrise, has offered to open its doors

on North Fla-
mingo Road and
Panther Parkway
in Sunrise, the
sprawling Artesia
complex is only
minutes from the
RAGFL West lo-
cation. (Many of

ber Artesia as it
was the site of
the successful RAGFL International
Women's Day event in March.)
This year's auction is sure not
to disappoint­­it will include
silent and live auctions, cocktails,
music, door prizes, gourmet hors
d'oeuvers, great
networking

more. Since

now open, be
sure to mark
your calendars and get your tick-
ets for Friday, October 23rd. For a
prior donation of $35.00 or $45 at
the door, expect the same fabulous
evening you experienced at our
last "Spring into Giving" fund-
raiser. Some of the fabulous auc-
tion items, which will be auctioned
once again by 2009 FAR Treasurer
Summer Greene, include: a priceless
brunch for 6 prepared by Broward

As a former member of another local
board, I know that other associations
don't offer the quality education
found here. At RAGFL, I always
leave classes with information that
can either save me money or make
me money." And as a business
professional, that's the bottom line.
