The 2017 Black Tie and Tennis Shoes Gala was a huge success, thank you to all of the attendees, volunteers, and sponsors for their participation and generosity!
“What a great event Black Tie & Tennis shoes 2017 was! I just love when organizations marry their mission and fundraising event the way NWOBS does with their ropes course. It is seriously an amazing logistical feat and one of the most original event ideas I’ve seen to date.”
-Misty Marquam, Auctioneer
