Carver-on-the-Minnesota, Inc. Silent Auction Items Wanted

The nonprofit group Carver-on-the-Minnesota, Inc. will be holding a ‘Silent Auction’ in conjunction with the Carver Lions Pork Chop Dinner at the Carver Village Hall on Friday, April 26, 2013 from 4 p.m to 8 p.m.

Auction items, services, event tickets, dinner certificates, antiques, artwork, craftwork, household goods, novelty baskets, sporting goods, etc. are now being solicited. It’s a great opportunity to showcase and advertise businesses, products and business locations, while at the same time benefiting the Carver area.

Donated items are tax deductible, and auction proceeds go directly to area benefit. Current focus is on historical markers and kiosks along trails, and the rebuilding of the lost Victorian Pavilion in Riverside Park, destroyed in a 1925 tornado.

Donated items may be dropped off during normal business hours at Carver Country Flowers at 109 Third Street East in downtown Carver.

For questions or pickups contact John at 952-361-3149 or Annette at 952-681-7582.
