Our 2018 Charity Auction was a great success! Between the considerate monetary donations and the enthusiastic bidding, we made a grand total of $1700! This has given us a good start for this year’s scholarship recipient(s). A big thank you to our auctioneers Betty DeFouw and Susan Young. A thank you, too, to Lois Johnson and Mary Dulude who assisted our auctioneers. And, an additional thank you to Susan Smokoski, Mary Lee Anderson, and Sharon VanVells who diligently recorded all the biddings and gathered the money.
