American Cancer Society Auction

We held the auction last night for the Relay for Life in Smyrna. The attendance was disappointing, but we did raise over $14,000 again this year. I picked up a necklace made by Andre Norton, world famous science fiction author, for $10. It has about a dozen fresh-water pearls in it, so I'm hoping I got it for a good price!

I saw our LaVergne's city administrator while there - kudos to Mr. Mark Moshea for supporting a good cause. I didn't ask about the pink water, a city swimming pool, nor renaming the new elementary school because I didn't feel it would be appropriate. I focused on the good cause of raising money for cancer research. There was plenty of press, but probably only about 50 buyers. Those who were there got some pretty sweet deals, but some spent major dollars (the signed Titans helmet that went for $2200).
