Save the Date! Diamonds and Denim

Mark your calendars now for the Toledo Opera Guild's major fall event, which benefits the amazing efforts of the Toledo Opera to bring you three fully staged operas this season.

Diamonds and Denim will be held the evening of Nov. 8, 2014 at the Toledo Club, 235 14th St. in downtown Toledo.

We are so looking forward to having fun with this theme, and great committees of guild members are shaping up under the co-chairmanship of Bonnie Milano and Rebecca Conklin Kleiboemer. If you would like to serve, please email Bonnie at bmilano@buckeye-express.com or Rebecca at rckleiboemer@gmail.com.

Shelli Jacobs and Traci Schwann are coordinating silent and live auctions full of fabulous items, and Barbara Baker and Diane Rusk will fill tables to the breaking point with delicious wine for sale. This will be the perfect opportunity for holiday shopping. Proceeds directly benefit the Toledo Opera.

We're also breaking a long-held club rule by actually encouraging guests to wear their blue jeans!

So, start thinking about how you'd creatively embrace our theme by wearing the glitz and glitter of diamonds, the sexy ruggedness of denim, or both!

Save the date of Nov. 8, and keep checking this blog, our Facebook page and your mailbox for information and invitations.
