Wow!! An Exciting week for the auction committee!

Well this past week has been a very exciting week!  As we’re nearing the auction, we have been receiving many generous donations!  So many, in fact, that we cannot begin to do them all justice on today’s blog post.  So we’ll simply list the donations that we have received so that you are kept informed, and then take the time to post photographs and more details on each item as we are able!  (we will be posting other items that we receive this week as well, in addition to this list).  Also, remember that we will be “bundling” some of these items into great packages, they will not necessarily be auctioned individually!  Thanks for looking!
