"Octoberfest" Talent Auction is Success

Sunday morning, aided by the end of Daylight Savings Time, Carla Holdridge reported that the previous night’s Talent Auction had netted a profit of $5342. The bidding was lively and the food was great. Fun was had as funds were raised. Theresa Ernst won the raffle of a weekend at the West's cabin on Bear Lake.

Thank you to everyone!
