“Boots & Bling” Hits the Runway on November 15th

11-15-14-Fashion-Show-lgThe annual fashion show runway event hosted by the American Association of University Women (AAUW) will take place on Saturday, November 15th at the Mariposa Fairgrounds. This year’s show promises to be a wildly entertaining afternoon of “Boots and Bling,” silent and live auction, great finger food plus a few surprises. Local models will hit the runway showcasing Mariposa clothing retailers with a western twist.  

Proceeds from the fashion show and auction fund scholarships for local girls to attend Tech Trek, a weeklong science camp for girls about to enter high school. The show starts at 3:00 p.m. in Building A at the Fairgrounds. Tickets are $15 and may be purchased from any AAUW member, at Casto Oaks Fine Wine & Art, and at Daily & Company Real Estate in Mariposa, or at the door.
