Heart of Doernbecher's Preview Night at Carl Greve Downtown

Last night's Heart of Doernbecher Auction Preview at our downtown store was a lot of fun. Many of the auction items were on display, like a Smart Car, autographed Brandon Roy Trail Blazers jersey, and many irresistible packages. A percentage of the evening's jewelry proceeds will be donated to Doernbecher Children's Hospital as a way to jump start a successful auction on October 17th.

A big thank you to everyone who attended last night's event.

Here's a sneak peak of one of the most touching items that will be auctioned. This chair was desigend by the children (and teenagers) from Doernbecher Children's Hospital. Their assignment? Draw something that makes you happy. Rainbows, puppies, surfing, flowers, medicine, and lots and lots of smiling faces.
