Rotarians and their helpful volunteers will be taking their places tonight inside the Lester Centre for the final night of the Rotary Auction |
With two days in the rear view mirror, Prince Rupert's Rotarians will be moving the bargains along quickly through the night tonight, as they mark the final evening for the annual event broadcast from the Lester Centre of the Arts.
The response, as it always is, has been strong from the community with many of the items up for bid receiving higher values than the posted numbers, an indication of the interest in the Auction and a good omen for the Prince Rupert Rotary Club and their programs and services.
As tonight is the final night, the Grand Prize Draw for 1,000 dollar travel voucher, with every successful bid entered in the drum for the big finale which will also feature the 750 Ticket fundraiser and its top prize of $1,500
Tonight's broadcast on CityWest Channels 10 / 310 HD and live stream starts at 6:30, offering up the chance to do your Christmas shopping in but four hours and all from the comfort of your home.
The phone number to keep handy by the phone is 250-627-8666 you can also get in some pre bids before show time by logging on to the Rotary Auction page to register your bid
By the time the auction bell is struck for the final time, Rotarians will have forwarded over 625 items to their new owners, with all of the proceeds from the event to be directed towards the growing list of items that Rotarians have in mind for community service for the North Coast.
You can learn more about the Rotary Auction and the work of Rotarians in the region from the Prince Rupert Rotary Facebook page and website.
