Virtual Auction
The Foundation is excited to host a virtual auction as the spring fundraiser for students and academic programs!
Last year’s online auction was such a success we decided to continue it! In the past, because of the seating limitations, our auction was limited to those few individuals who could attend. Today, we are excited to open the auction to anyone who is interested!
Join us to participate in supporting the College, our students, and our programs!
We are still getting prizes, but see what we had last year:
- Special Raffles
- 1st National Bank Lagos Bracelet Blitz
- Marvelous Mouse Travels Vacation Choice Raffle, compliments of Farmers & Merchants Bank and Custom-Pak
- .22 Pistol, .22 Rifle, and Ammo Raffle, compliments of Rob Olvey and Danny Barr
- Online Auction of private dinners, vacations, home items, and more!
