Benefit Event Raising Funds for Kids 2 Camp
Saturday, August 27, 2011

The twelfth annual August Extravaganza is just days away! It is a fun event that raises funds for the Camp’s Kids 2 Camp Scholarship Fund, helping kids go to camp. Last year, the Extravaganza raised $54,000!

You will find some incredible bargains, lots of great gift ideas, and even once-in-a-lifetime experiences … each item going to the highest bidder. There’s something for you at the August Extravaganza!

The auction preview opens at 9 a.m., and the first auction begins at 10 a.m. The auctions run until approximately 3:00 p.m. The two live auctions and a silent auction will feature hundreds of items including things for the yard and garden, sports memorabilia, dining opportunities, gift certificates, craft items, tools, golf packages, sporting event tickets, vacation packages, home furnishings, and one-of-a-kind experiences. The event also has activities for the kids and food concessions on site, including Ivar’s clam chowder and the Camp’s famous cinnamon rolls.

Make your plans to be a part of this exciting event this year — the August Extravaganza, Saturday, August 27.
