The PEO (Philanthropic Educational Organization) invites the community to attend its musical extravaganza spring fashion show-luncheon-silent auction.
“Hooray for Hollywood” is planned for Saturday, Feb. 22, from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort in Fort McDowell.
PEO is a nonprofit organization in the U.S. and Canada that raises money for women’s scholarships.
PEO-Chapter DZ is the local chapter from Fountain Hills sponsoring this event.
The fashion show will be presented by Classy Jazzy of Fountain Hills. Guests will walk the red carpet upon entering, be greeted by paparazzi and experience piano music of show tunes from several musicians from the Fountain Hills Piano Studio while they shop at the raffle and silent auction tables.
Professional singer Les Koel will entertain participants during the event with motion picture-themed songs.
Attendees should bring cash or a check for the raffle tables. Credit cards can be used only for silent auction items. A cash bar will be available.
According to the event coordinator Paula Plotkin and co-chair Susan Slapke, PEO is still recruiting program ads, sponsorships and auction items to defer the cost of the fashion show.
The deadline for sponsorship is Saturday, Feb. 1. To inquire, contact Plotkin by phone at 623-606-8371 or send an email to paulaplotkin@ymail.com. Inquiries can also be sent to Slapke at 847-560-3708 or suslapke@comcast.net.

Participants should include an email address at the bottom of the check for confirmation and indicate food allergies and preference for a vegetarian meal.
There are no refunds for this event. The deadline to purchase tickets is Saturday, Feb. 8.
