Just Two Weeks Away!

Just two weeks from today your Chamber will hold its 24th Annual Auction, the Chamber's largest fundraiser of the year!

A successful auction needs four elements:

1. A great cause: An auction is fun but is even better when you know the money will go to organizations with a mission. We have always supported great local non-profit organizations.

2. An inviting location: This year your Auction will be held at the new Maneeley's Banquet and Catering where the highest quality food will be served.

3. Auction items: At this time we have approximately 75 live auction items and 130 silent auction items - over two hundred exciting items to bid on and more coming in each day. It is not too late to donate!

4. Attendees: You cannot have a successful auction without people. To date we have had good ticket sales but with more than 320 Chamber members the number should be higher! Buy your tickets today!

Please call the Chamber office at 688-5165 to order your tickets now or click below to order online.
