Another Auction Night Has Come and Gone

Last night was the Miles for Smiles charity auction at Liquid Kitty Lounge, 69 John St. S.

Thank you to all those who turned out and plunked down their hard-earned cash to bid on a wide variety of items, kindly donated by our generous benefactors.  A huge thank you as well to Francis and the staff at Tailgates, who put out their customary fantastic spread, once again made us feel very welcome in their establishment with their hospitality.  Tara in particular deserves a shoutout – she raised about $1500 through some activities at Tailgate’s golf tournament and at some other events.  Thank you.

Thank you as well to our generous sponsors – whose logos, found at the right hand side of this page,  act as links to their respective websites.  These folks have supported our efforts to raise funds for the Good Shepherd Centres both monetarily and logistically;  some, like Backspin Marketing Group have worked tirelessly to help the event unfold.  We are very grateful for all of this support from our sponsors.  Please send your business their way and thank them for contributing to this worthwhile cause.

The winner of the Las Vegas trip was – if I remember correctly – Bruce Cook.  Also, for the first time in living memory, no one from the band won the basket of booze.   I think they call that a “black swan” event.

I’ll have a post with some wrap up information for this year, and hopefully some pictures too.  In the meantime, I have to get ready for tomorrow’s ride.  Keep your fingers crossed for “no rain.”
