Hand Crafted Glass Chair

Museum of Glass artist Ben Cobb was inspired by the classic charm of a wooden ladder-back chair complete with turned legs and hand-shaped ladder rungs when designing this year’s glass chair. The child’s scale evokes scenes of school days, tea parties and story time corners and is sure to recall the whimsy and charm of childhood for all who view it. This NW Furniture Bank Chair Affair 2015 one-of-kind creation was made possible by the generous support of the Museum of Glass.

Luxury Overnight in Seattle

Imagine…you and your date pick up your Lamborghini in Tacoma and then drive to Seattle to watch the sun set over the Emerald City. It's not just a dream - it's a dream come true! Next, you'll dine high in the sky at the Space Needle before heading downtown to the Paramount Theater. Once there, you'll view a world-class performance at “one of the busiest theatres in the region”.  Afterward, the Lambo will escort you a few blocks down the street to the luxurious Mayflower Park Hotel where you’ll spend the night recalling the fabulous evening you’ve just enjoyed.  If you like, you might spread these events out for three unique dates!  Revved up or idle…the Lamborghini is yours for a day.

Expand your time in imaginative play with those beloved children with Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium,  Woodland Park Zoo tickets, Olympia Hands On Children’s Museum tickets, NW Trek passes, and  a three month family membership to any local YMCA.

Enjoy the natural beauty of the San Juan Islands from your window-side table, using your gift certificate for dinner at the lovely McMillin Dining Room at the Roche Harbor Resort overlooking the marina.  Savor the sights and sounds unique to this beloved getaway destination, and, when you leave, maid service takes care of the clean-up!

Snowmobile Adventure

Next snow season you’ll find yourself in a winter wonderland, gearing up for the adventure of a lifetime.  Under the delightful, skilled guidance of local outdoor enthusiasts, you and your guest set off from Cle Elum cross country on snowmobiles, covering miles of picturesque, rarely-seen winter beauty. Afterward, enjoy an evening of hospitality at Whistlin’ Jack Lodge in Cliffdale, featuring a gourmet dinner paired with local wines. A good night’s sleep in one of the quaint and well-appointed cottages, followed by a mountain breakfast before you start off the next day is all you’ll need.  Let it snow! Let it Snow! Let's go!

South Sound Sunset Cruise

You and seven good friends or family members will board the gracious Watermark, a luxurious 56 foot raised pilot house motor yacht, at Gig Harbor.

The only drawback to the evening? It must end at some point. Lucky you, the wonderful memories will linger!

Go Seahawks Go

What game are you dying to see? You've got it! Pick a 2015-16 season home game and get ready for two of you to enjoy a one-of-kind day.

The fun continues all season long with your own collapsible Seahawks canvas chairs, local micro-brewery sampler collection and a “catered tailgate box" for 12 from Jersey Mikes Subs.   No matter what the score is at the end of the game…you win!
