Central Vermont Habitat for Humanity is holding a  "Bid to Build: auction. It is a fundraiser auction to support building houses in Central VT for their affordable home ownership program. They have received donations from local, state, and regional businesses for the auction. A partial list of their donors can be found at the bottom of their event webpage, https://www.centralvermonthabitat.org/bid2build.html. 
 
The Mad River Barn has graciously let them use their pub and lodge space for the auction. Habitat will provide appetizers, and there will be live music and a cash bar at the event. Merrill Auction will be doing the live auction for the higher end items and there will be a silent auction for the other items.
 
 
They would like to invite members of our Club to attend the event, and they would also appreciate help from a handful of additional volunteers. Volunteers will help with setting up the event, helping people with parking, registering bidders, assisting the auctioneer with items, and then breaking down the event.  The auction takes place on Saturday, Dec. 3 from 6:30 to 9:00pm at the Mad River Barn in Fayston.
 
Habitat is a great organization, and it would be terrific if we could help them out. Please contact Bill Barnes at   barnes@clarion.edu  if you would like to volunteer to help out.
