Keep in mind that the bachelor's expectations will vary.

The auction will come as a great benefit to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, and will help further its mission to cure blood cancers. All proceeds will go directly to the Leukemia and Lymphoma society. For more information call Aileen Laughlin at (425) 466-9751 or Katie Laughlin at 710-6521.

Big Brothers, Big Sisters
Michael Anderson Elementary School is looking for Big Brothers, Big Sisters, men and women who are free to spend one hour per week during lunch with a child at the school. They would have lunch together and be with them at recess. Consistency is critical for children, as they become very attached to their big brother or sister. The school understands that there are times when a volunteer may be gone out of town or other setbacks and will work around this.

Applications are available at the school. Volunteers will be screened by Big Brothers, Big Sisters and an interview will be scheduled. For information call Cheryl Stitt at 565-3604.
