Annual silent auction now underway at Agri-Center
The seventh annual Grady County Historical Society Silent Auction opened Wednesday morning and interested bidders will only have until Thursday night to bid on hundreds of auction items.
This year’s auction, which opened at 10 a.m. today, will last only two days with the exhibition of auction items.
Interested bidders can visit the Agri-Center and place bids until 6 p.m. on Wednesday and bidding will resume at 10 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 13.
The bidding will end at 8:30 p.m. sharp on Thursday night.
While the bids are being tabulated, “ole-timey” refreshments will be served.
There is no fee to participate and organizers encourage the community to come out and support what has become the largest fundraiser for the society.
All proceeds from the auction go toward the maintenance and operation of the Grady County Museum and History Center.
