Bring your chequebook and an appetite; the Lions Club of Strathmore is hosting their annual auction on April 14 at the Strathmore Civic Centre.
Last year, over 380 people attended the event, which has been a major spring fundraiser for the Lions Club for the past 23 years, said Wayne Sharp, club president.
The event will feature a silent auction and also a live auction, starting at 6 p.m.
Local businesses and individuals have donated items for the auctions and Sharp said there are some big-ticket items being featured in the live auction.
Almost 50 volunteers come out to make the event a success and all the money raised goes to the Lions Club, which will spend it all locally, Sharp added. Doors open at 5 p.m. Lions Club members have the $25 tickets for the event and some will be available at the door.
