Figure the recipe has a good chance to work. The club's track record is pretty solid. Its annual fund-raiser has grown explosively over the last decade. If Saturday's event doesn't reach that goal, the trio will pay a price. The stakes are a wheelbarrow ride down San Marcos Boulevard.
Losers push the winners.
Whether or not they reach that goal, this year's event will be the biggest ever, mainly because the club can't fit the estimated 400 guests and all the auction items in one spot. The silent auction will take place in the club's gym, with dinner following in the community room. The mystery is whether that bidder will have any competition. Other auction highlights include trips to Hawaii and Tahiti and a six-person spa, which couldn't fit through the club's doors. If you tossed your tap shoes in the closet as a child or teen-ager, you're just what she wants.
