ENTERTAINMENT

Caricatures by Mr. David C. Perry David’s Caricature Portraits are popular for their "kinder, gentler” style with likable likenesses. They are fun, but flattering, so that everyone ends up thrilled to see themselves as characters in a cartoon scene featuring big heads with little bodies and cool details, all tailored to each person's choice of theme. Pick your favorite sport, hobby or fantasy and have a seat! Posing is painless – and watching a picture take shape is a magical spectator sport. Suggested minimum donation: $10 per person. Cash accepted or you may “put it on your tab” for final checkout. Learn more about this multitalented artist/musician/funnyman at www.MrDavid.com.

Performance by Jeff Lohan Jeff Lohan’s debut album is just simply beautifully composed. It breaks it down to the simplicity of a man and his guitar and proves sometimes that’s all you really need. From the production side all the way through to the arrangements and lyrics on this album, gives you the traditional singer/songwriter vibe similar to what you would hear from artists like Jim Croce, James Taylor, and Gordon Lightfoot just to name a few, but also proves to be current at the same time.

Jeff performs locally in the Bucks and Montgomery Country areas at various music venues and community events. You can check out more information, his story, schedule and music samples at www.jefflohanmusic.com

Games (included in your ticket price)

BEST DRESSED: Each guest received five (5) tickets at the check-in table. As you enjoy your evening and make your auction bids, keep an eye out for those who dressed to the theme. Please give a ticket to deserving attendees. The winner of the Best Dressed contest will be determined at the end of the evening by the number of tickets earned.

Stop by our three simple game stations.

Guess How Many Chess Pieces: Just as the name suggests, we invite each guest to make a guess and grab a treat while you’re here. Winner will receive a special Wonderland prize.

Pick A Card: Stop by and pick a card. Each card earns a yummy treat or Wonderland themed prize

Alice in Wonderland scratch-off tickets – The element of surprise. Get your ticket and see what you’ve won.

Towards the end of the evening, we will play Heads or Tails. All are welcome to join in the fun.

A prize will be given to the member/friend of TPUUF who has

brought the most guests to our auction.

BASKET03 – Drink Me Potion Basket: “However, this bottle was not marked ‘poison,’ so Alice ventured to taste it, and finding it very nice, (It has, in fact, a sort of mixed flavor of cherry-tart custard, pineapple, roast turkey, toffee, and hot buttered toast,) she very soon finished it off.” No poison in this basket, but instead a collection of wines and other drinks to make your own magical potions. A party starter…additions to the home bar…or a BYOB basket for a future dinner out.

Donated by Rhiannon Sherrard & Jake Kunkel

BASKET04 – Curioser and Curioser Basket: “Curioser and curioser!’ cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English); ‘now I’m opening out like the largest telescope that ever was! Good-bye feet!’ (for when she looked down at her feet, they seemed to be almost out of sight, they were getting so far off.)” This basket won’t open you up physically but is designed to open up your mind and challenge you with a collection of brain teasers, puzzles, and projects to ponder.

Donated by the TPUUF Community

BASKET05 – Eat Me Cake Basket: “Well, I’ll eat it,” said Alice, “and if it makes me grow larger, I can reach the key; and if it makes me grow smaller, I can creep under the door: so either way I’ll get into the garden, and I don’t care which happens!” This basket is for the baker in us all and may just have the recipe for those magic cakes. With a collection of baking pans, bowls, and measuring utensils you’ll be making your own treats that call out “eat me.”

Donated by Kate Weber

BASKET06 – Off With Their Heads Basket: “The Queen had only one way of settling all difficulties, great or small. ‘Off with his head!’ she said, without even looking round.” We hope you won’t settle a tie with such extreme choices but this basket will bring about competition. A collection of classic card and dice games combined with a few kid-friendly board games make this basket perfect for family game night…just remember to encourage good sportsmanship.

Donated by the TPUUF Community

BASKET07 – Wine and Cheese Basket: Great for a housewarming, a hostess gift, or a long weekend with your loved one. Collection of wine, wine rack, cheese board, table décor and a gift certificate to The Grand Fromage in Skippack.
