Al Kader Shrine Center 25100 SW Parkway Ave. Wilsonville, Oregon Sponsored by Nydia Temple No. 4 Celebrating 100 years of Helping Kids and Making Memories
Welcome to NORTH/WEST DAZE 2019 RAINDROPS AND ROSES Hosted by Nydia Temple No. 4 This Year, Nydia Temple is observing 100 years as a Daughters of the Nile Temple. We chose to host North/West Daze 2019 to invite you to be part of our yearlong festivities as we Celebrate 100 Years of Helping Kids and Making Memories. All events (other than tours) will take place at the Al Kader Shrine Center in Wilsonville. There are several reasonably prices hotels nearby and one RV resort. We will have shuttles available for those of you without cars and who will need transportation to/from the airport. This event is one of three special Birthday celebrations hosted by Nydia this year. This one is focused on having social time with members from other temples and on raising funds for the Daughters of the Nile Foundation. This is why we have decided to have an all inclusive registration that covers everything except for tours and T-Shirts. Food, tours, seminars, etc. are at our cost these are not the fund raisers. However, we will have a quilt to auction (made by a Master Quilter member) and a silent auction of smaller sewn items. We hope that the money you save by paying a minimum for our NORTH/WEST DAZE, you will invest in our DON Foundation items when you get here. Our Raindrops and Roses committee has been working hard to make this a unique part of our Birthday year and we hope that you will enjoy doing things a little differently. We all want to have a fun weekend and support Shriners Hospitals For Children through donating to the Daughters of the Nile Foundation. PQ Judy C Smith, General Chairman Pr Holly Austin, Co-Chair

Nydia Temple has many very talented quilters and seamstresses. We are known for our work at the Portland Shriners Hospital for Children. By combining those talents with our theme Raindrops and Roses, a great way to raise funds for the DON Foundation became clear. We will sew all our decorations and then auction them off to our guests. All Silent Auction items are donated and all were to be no larger than a lap quilt. They will include wall hangings, table runners, table toppers, clothing items and bags. All must contain roses in the fabric. They will be displayed about the large banquet room during North/West Daze and you will have an opportunity to make bids throughout the weekend. At the end of the Banquet on Saturday evening, you may pay (we will accept credit cards and checks) and pick up your beautiful handmade souvenir of North/West Daze 2019. All monies collected from this Silent Auction will be donated to the Daughters of the Nile Foundation. Here are some samples of the many items being created for the silent auction:
