On Saturday, November 14, 2009 The Greater Seattle Business Association holds their most “delicious” and infamous auction and dinner called TASTE of GSBA, from 5:30pm – 10pm at Seattle’s Sheraton Hotel. This event attracts a who’s who of business people in gay Seattle. This year’s theme is South Pacific and will raise money for the GSBA Scholarship Fund.
Think swaying palms, tropical breezes, grass skirts and colorful shirts and you will be in the South Pacific theme.
There are so many truly fabulous items up for bid during their auction that night. The sheer number and quality of donations is amazing.
