Auction Items and Procurement Form Drop-Off

Thank you to those who turned in their Auction items at our 2nd Procurement Drop-Off on Wednesday!  Congratulations to the Exnicios Family who won 2 Free Admissions to BINGO night for turning in their procurement forms already! You may continue to turn in your Auction items and procurement forms to the Auction Office located in the Administration Building now through February   14th.
