Tomorrow, Saturday, July 11, at the Alumni Center, 3rd Street, in Wellsville is the Chamber-of-Commerce Auction starting at 6 P.M. Up for bid will be over 170 items that were all donated for this fund raiser. All proceeds go to making improvements in the village. The first of these will be for supplies to refurbish the gazebo at the 4th Street Square. With the Trade Unions donating the labor for this project, the Chamber is saving the village a huge repair bill in getting this Wellsville landmark back to pristine condition.
Shown here is a very blurry Candy Bangor holding up one of the many nice items that will be put up for bid. There is a brand new girls bike, Steeler stuff including an authenticated Jack Ham autographed football. There's a Steeler tent. There's Ohio State Buckeye stuff. There's a one week stay at a condo in Naples, FL. There's Fiesta ware. There's Lenox ware. There's a gob of gift certificates for many different stores. There are so many nice things I got too excited to hold the camera still! You can check out the list of all the donated items on the Chamber's web site at http://www.wellsvilleohiochamber.com/.
The Wellsville Lions Club will be there serving food & refreshments. The WHS Alumni Committee donated the use of the hall. Sell's Auction donated the services of auctioneer Russ Koontz. There's even going to be celebrity presenters showing the items as they are put up for bid.
It looks like a fun evening for a very worthwhile cause. Got my "auction bucks". I'm ready. Doors open at 5:30. You'll even be able to "clearly" see Candy!
