Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, the most hilarious event in our club is just around the corner...

It's the HOLIDAY AUCTION!!!

If you thought we are a riotous group, you have not been to an auction yet. We will be rolling off our chairs with uncontrollable laughter as we auction our unwanted holiday gifts.

Don't forget...keep a gift and bring it to the meeting and we will have a professional auctioneer provided by club service chair Steve and sell it to your fellow Rotarians at a fair price (tongue-in-cheek).

To keep it honest, club service co-chair Denise will be buying great gifts compliments of the club and thus "seeding" the auction with articles worth their salt.

So don't be shy and stay away from this event. We want you to bring money to buy but most of all we want your laughter!
