The moment we have all worked so hard for, the 59th Auction is now live. We have a tremendous 400 plus items donated by 290 companies adding up to $75,000. With our new initiative of awarding donors who have donated items or services of $250 or more we have over 100 companies that qualify.

On Tuesday just before noon President Bob Campbell, Past-President, Ron Fichtner & President-Elect Bob Hlina went to the Carney Hill school playground and officially opened it. After 3 years of paperwork, red tape & finally purchasing and erecting, the playground is complete.
