One last Christmas gift and Best Food of 2010 Poll!

We have a winner! Frank Fromme of Standards of Excellence in San Rafael shares one last gift from our holiday season.

And the winner is...

"The NARI Christmas party this year was the best one yet. This was our sixth year hosting this event and it was enjoyed by all. The generous gift from Purcell Murray of the Thermador DWHD630GCM  dishwasher was a big help in raising the nearly $3,500 dollars that was collected that night for our local Redwood High Schools ROP program. Our lucky winner actually told us that she has been needing a new dishwasher for some time now as her current dishwasher is very, very old. We are all pleased that the first prize went to such a worthy contestant!"

"Congratulations to Louise Leff of Leff Landscape Architecture. She will be getting her new dishwasher installed just in time to make a New Years Resolution to never have a spotty piece of stemware again!"

 Thanks, Frank, well done!
