This year’s gala auction will go online starting Friday, April 17 at 4 p.m. and end at 8 p.m. on Sunday, April 19. All items will be posted on the group’s Facebook page; to bid, simply comment with your bid amount. The highest bid wins. A special Happy Hour auction will be held Saturday featuring items only available during the happy hour auction. The preview starts at 3:30 and the auction starts at 4.
