Chinese Auction

It is time for our annual "Move the trash from your RV to another" Party!

This is always a fun night with some hidden surprises. Last night we had a large crowd, not sure if it was for the pizza or the wonderful opportunity to purchase some extraordinary items for 25 cents? I suspect the pizza, or maybe just a fun auction?

Some amazing items for the auction!





The crowd gathers!


Time for Pizza!


Lots of people eating pizza...


After dinner the fun begins - Numbers are assigned (You buy a number for 25 cents) then after all the numbers are sold the drawings are begun - The ladies pick one of the glorious items for auction and draw a number, if it is your number you get the item...no refusing and there is lots of trading going on or as you leave the item is left on a table and taken to the local Church thrift store!



Bobbie Happy it was her number!

We know Jim will be warm this winter!


This is in the box Jim so modestly is displaying!


Some tables really hit the jackpot!


Everyone had a grand time and the Church Thrift store will get a bunch today! And a few items switched RV's!

Always a fun evening and a huge undertaking to gather all the items and get them displayed in the Clubhouse, arrange and collect for the pizza's etc. Thank you Linda Stevens for heading up this fun event and Betty, Charlene, Bobbie, June and Shirley for selling numbers and passing out those wonderful winners! Thanks Jim Stevens for the trip to Pizza Hut to retrieve our orders!

Today is the deadline to sign up for Saturday night dinner and dance - we are having a pre-super bowl dinner with pulled pork sandwiches, baked beans, cole slaw and dessert.


Sunday the game will be on in the clubhouse and and we are having a potluck so bring some munchies or snack food and come enjoy the game, hope you bought a square in the pool!
