______TODAY’S PROGRAMME: AUCTION NIGHT

The Annual Dinner Auction which benefits the Club's members Every Rotarian Every Year (EREY) Contributions to the tune of $100 per active member was a huge success thanks to the efforts of our Vice President Barbara Edwards, Donato & Beverly, our auctioneers Bob Flath, Charles Jeffers and Bob Woods who kept the bidding high and interesting and the RBYC staff who gave us an extraordinary environment to enjoy the evening. The items on auctions were exceptional with the Blue Mouse statue from WindReach making its annual appearance.

The report from Barbara is as follows:

For those of you in attendance at last night's Dinner Auction, I for one being the organizer, want to thank you very much...it was a great evening of fun and good contributions. For those not in attendance, we hope that you will come forward and fulfill your commitment by paying the $100, you know who you are. Most thanks to our wonderful auctioneers, Capt Bob Flath, Charles Jeffers and Bob Wood. Certainly did a great job! Thanks to Beverly & Donato for recording the purchases and to Reid & Kyle for taking care of the entrance. At first count the auction realized $4670, confirmation will be emailed to you today.
