This November will mark the 25th consecutive year for the Rotary Club of Jefferson’s Annual Charity Auction.
Thanks to the generosity of local businesses and individuals over the past quarter of a century, the auction has resulted in more than $600,000 being given back to the community in the form of grants to non-profits, schools, youth, and other community projects, both large and small. Most recently, the Rotary Club donated $50,000 for the construction of a community dog park, and the club is currently saving some auction proceeds for another large community project.
This year’s auction will be held Friday, Nov. 17, in the Greene Room at Wild Rose Casino & Resort in Jefferson. The live event will begin with a cocktail hour at 5:30 pm, followed by dinner at 6:30. The online portion of the event will commence on Nov. 12 and all online items will be displayed at the live event. Online bidding will end shortly before the live auction starts.
Tickets to the live event are on sale online now. Those wishing to attend the auction can purchase tickets for a table of eight, or individual tickets, at https://www.32auctions.com/jeffersonrotary2023. This is the same site at which individuals can later bid on silent auction items. The Rotary Club of Jefferson looks forward to making this silver anniversary charity auction the best yet. Please contact Susan Laehn at 515-370-5883 for more information.
