Eight to ten more inches of new snow not quite what you were looking forward to this week? Getting desperate for things to take your mind off this very long winter? The Student Financial Services staff cordially invite you to step into a new world where you will be pampered ...
The sixth annual Bursar's Benefit Auction is ready to sweep you away into a world of comfort. How about some of these items for starters ...
Bid on on overnight stay for two at the incredible Esperanza Mansion on Keuka Lake! A mere hour away, Esperanza sits on a hill overlooking beautiful Keuka Lake and presents a stunning and serene view of the surrounding area. Close to wonderful wineries, this is the perfect getaway!
Just want to sit back and relax and wait out the weather? Chill out in a comfortable glider rocker or one of two wingback chairs. While you're there, sip on some of the local wines we have for you and enjoy some of our autographed novels!
Feeling romantic? Check out the many scented candles and soaps we have available. Dawdle in a nice warm bath surrounded by just the perfect set of candles and soaps from our collection, and forget all about that mound of snow outside your window!
Will food help chase away the blahs? Why not use one of our gift certificates to fine establishments such as Garcia's, the Ramada Inn, Shortstop, or Jason's Deli! Remember, too, that you could also be the winner of the chocolate basket or the gift card basket raffle, and increase your options tremendously!
These are just a few suggestions to give you hope that better days are ahead. And speaking of better days, let's not forget to mark our calendars for April 2, date of the Bursar's Benefit Auction! With raffles, silent and live auctions, and prize balloons, there will not be a better place to be on that date!
Our silent auction will run from 10:00 a.m. to noon, and the live auction, featuring the dynamic duo of Sam Lapp and Duane Corbin, will run from 12:30 to 1:30 pm.
