Items receiving high bids this year were Yeti coolers and tumblers, food and drink gift sets and not ONE, but TWO weeks at Den & Sandy Gardner’s beautiful Florida home! Den and Sandy generously added a second week for a second bidder as this Auction item gathered a lot of well-deserved traffic. Gift cards and techie gifts also did well. Many thanks to all the donors and to the winners who help make this auction a success!
