Jimmy Fund Auction @ the show

Auction for Kid’s with Cancer at the Show
« Thread Started on Apr 1, 2011, 10:36am »
I would like to start a silent Auction at the show this month to
Benefit children with cancer, I have chosen the Jimmy Fund to be awarded all donations

http://www.jimmyfund.org/abo/flash/history/history.html
Please watch the above video and learn a little history behind the Jimmy Fund

I am inspired to start this annual event with the SWLCC because of other fishing clubs who also give back to children and others. Number one would be the “ Ditch Trolls” a local Cape Cod Canal club who raise funds several times during the year
Thank You Tagger and everyone else in the club http://www.stripersonline.com/surftalk/showthread.php?t=790844
2nd would be the Mass Bass club who also take the kid’s on special fishing trips and give back most of the money that they make each year
3rd would be working at Umass Hospital everyday walking down the hallway and seeing children with disabilities and wishing only the best for all of them !

So please let me be the first to donate a couple lures to be put up for the first silent auction (I also will donate my table at the show)
One Stan Gibbs darter in the box and 2nd a Conn Yankee , both in mint condition

Both club members and attendees will be able to bid on them with no disruption during the show , Winners will be announced before the end of the show.

Donations will be accepted during the show or you can send them to me or Dave in advance .
Just send a PM for our address

We will be accepting Antique lures or custom plugs , or cash / checks
Let’s make this a rewarding event that means something.

Let’s all remember it is all about Giving Back to those who are less fortunate

Thanks in advance
Peter
