Second Vice President - Benefit
Jill Fosselman
HNY Lovelies!
2020 is off to the races -– can’t believe how fast this is moving … Cheers and much appreciation to Dana Marevich and Lynn Mehl on a successful EHP – beautifully executed, yummy food and LOTS of shrimp (and we all know how much Showcase loves shrimp). Thank you to everyone who made the event happen, and special thanks to John Hoag (Christine Upton’s love) for providing the live music! Have any questions about the designers or miss a space? Make sure to join us at the February Benefit Committee meeting for the full introduction of the 2020 design team!
Super excited with all the media partnerships being developed by Michele Lembo and her PR team -– can’t wait for the extended coverage! Very pleased to announce our new National Media Sponsor, Aspire Magazine. Our Tickets team worked hard to sell record numbers of Golden, VIP and Insider tickets (and collect important data) –- now beginning the pivot to regular ticket marketing and sales which will launch at the end of the month. Thank you to Joy Sullivan and Bev Marksbury for leading the charge on Patrons -– we are very grateful to all who have donated. Very excited that Chef Edward of Sierra Fusion will be providing all the nosh and nibbles for 2020! Marsha Seyffert is putting together a fantastic entertainment program and schedule for the house -– lots of reasons to keep coming back, touring the home and shopping at our awesome Shops, as curated by Marilyn Anderson and Erin Dundee!
Wishing you all peace, love and friendship in 2020. Thank you for joining us, or staying with us, on this Showcase journey. And to quote Vikki, we are DEFINITELY more than just a pretty house!

Associate Representatives
Marybeth Rehman-Dittu & Eileen Reilly
First, we hope you all have a healthy and happy 2020!
Second, if you missed the Halloween Haunt, you definitely don’t want to miss the Associates Sneak Peek on Saturday, March 7th. If you did attend the Halloween Haunt, you know how great that was and we know you will make every effort to continue the fun by coming, with or without your significant other, to see the 2020 Showcase House while it is under construction…yes, we are planning an event that men will enjoy!!! The Associates Sneak Peek will start about 4:00 PM with a tour of the House. We are advised that some of our 2020 designers will be there to talk about their design concepts. And then, of course, since Marybeth and Eileen are involved, there will be wine and soft beverages, as well as some hors d’oeuvres. After all, we can’t have you go thirsty or hungry at an Associate event, can we?
Invitations will be emailed to you shortly. So, check your email and spam folders so you don’t miss out. We want to see a fabulous turnout for this event!
