Thank you for Community Support of Fairmount’s Benefit Auction
Fairmount’s 35th Annual Benefit Auction turned out to be a wonderful day, with perfect weather and a great turnout of our residents and local community, Proceeds from this year’s annual event will benefit the Sharing Fund, which goes toward the cost of care for residents who have exhausted their financial resources. Your contributions are greatly appreciated.
The event began at 6:30am with the opening of the flea market and a country breakfast (by donation) that included eggs, bacon, sausage, French toast, orange juice, and much more. Homemade donuts and coffee were available for sale as well, and food stands opened shortly after breakfast. New this year was pork BBQ, rather than chicken BBQ as in previous years. There were two auction tents with live auctions that opened at 9am and continued throughout the day, as well as a Silent Auction featuring Dining for Dollars events, and a Children’s Auction.
Thank you again to everyone for your support, whether by attending the Benefit Auction, bidding, buying, or donating items for the sale.
