Hello Everyone,
I am writing to let you all
know that our company will be sponsoring a booth at
this year's "Art in the Park" festival in
Watchung New Jersey. This is a fund raising event
with all proceeds going to the Watchung
Educational Foundation. Below is a
description of the event. This festival has
been put together by one of our customers
and they had a great turn out last
year! If you are free this Saturday, please come
out and show your support!

The
Watchung Educational
Fundation
The Watchung
Educational Foundation, a volunteer-driven, community
based, non-profit organization, announced plans today
for its Second Annual Art in The Park Festival, A
Journey through the Arts. On Saturday, April 25,
2009 from 11:00AM to 5:00PM, on Mobus Field, the heart
of downtown Watchung, New Jersey, a collection of fine
artists including painters, photographers, jewelry
makers and sculptors, will showcase and present their
handcrafted works for sale with the beautiful setting
of the Watchung Mountains as their backdrop.
Last year, over 50 vendors displayed their wares in
addition to over a dozen local performers who
conducted demonstrations, story readings and
mini-classes. In case of inclement weather that
day, Art in the Park will be held at an alternative
indoor location, Watchung's Middle School, Valley
View. The Watchung Educational Foundation is
committed to assisting Watchung's Elementary and
Middle Public Schools by independently financing
curriculum enhancements through a grant process, and
conducts various fundraising efforts throughout the
year such as The Art In The Park project to support
its mission. The Foundation is seeking
artisans and participants interested this year in
selling or demonstrating their crafts during the
Annual Art in The Park Celebration on April 25, 2009.
Vendor contracts are available to be downloaded at the
Watchung Educational Foundation's website www.wefund.org.
The deadline for completed contracts is April 1,
2009. For further information, please contact
Tina Kelly at (908) 822-9024 or Lisa Brown at (908)

Foundation's Art In The Park Fundraising event will
also include a variety of foods for purchase, an
assortment of raffles, several musical performances as
well as many hands-on activities and workshops for
parents and their children. Art In The Park is
open to the general public with a suggested donation
of $3.00 per person to attend this one-day festival.

community based, non-profit organization committed to
