Treasure Island –  On December 2, The Treasure Islettes, the women’s club of Treasure Island held its annual fall fundraising event. The annual luncheon and holiday bazaar had member contributions of crafts, jewelry, baked goods, plants and gift baskets in addition to a silent auction. President Toni Hawkins was delighted with the outcome of the event and said it is gratifying that 100 percent of the proceeds will help fund many needed projects.

BJ Flowers, Chair Beautification Committee and Toni Hawkins, President are pleased with the successful fundraiser event noting that the Islettes have donated over 1 million dollars since 1955.
