Batavia, Ohio. You can spend a fun evening bidding on a wide range of items including a primitive wash stand, Bentwood rocker, child’s desk from an early Milford school, and a limited edition Ruthven print at the annual Art, Antiques, and Collectibles Auction, sponsored by Clermont Senior Services. The event will be held on Friday, September 11, 2009 at Receptions-Eastgate, located at 4450 Eastgate Boulevard in Union Township. The silent auction and appetizers begins at 5 p.m., dinner is at 7 p.m., and the live auction kicks off at 8 p.m., just as the frenzied silent auction bidding winds up!
“The silent auction gets pretty crazy,” said Connie Landock, Clermont Seniors development assistant. “Everyone is trying to outbid each other as the tables close!” “This is a really fun event and a great way to support the many programs offered by Clermont Senior Services,” said Clermont Seniors Development Director Debbie Siegroth.
The cost to attend is $40 a person for appetizers, dinner, and the live and silent auctions. Raffle tickets will be sold to win items, such as a 32-inch LCD HD television, a three-day vacation at a Lake Cumberland resort, a limited edition signed nature print by artist David Atkins, and several $100 gas cards! You do not have to attend the event to purchase raffle tickets.
For more information on the auction, to donate an item, make a reservation, or buy a raffle ticket, call Connie at Clermont Senior Services, (513) 536-4021.
