The doom will open at the Washington School on Mt. Salem Avenue for the eighth annual Fall Auction and Party sponsored by the Child Care and Learning Center on Saturday, Nov. 8 at 5:30 p.m.
This gala event is now the only fundraising event of the year for CCLC. This huge undertaking is spearheaded by the Friends of CCLC, a committee of volunteers headed by Amy Burnett.
The entrance fee of $20 will help cover the cost of the lavish spread of food and drink that is part of the evening’s festivities. Guests will be invited to browse through the Sursum Corda Shoppe, for priced antiques and collectibles; sign up for any of the more than 40 items and services for bid at the silent auction tables in the Board room; and get a close look at the impressing array of furniture and quality items displayed upon the stage that will be auctioned off beginning at 7 p.m.
Bill Payne and his family will be donating their professional auction services once again. CCLC will take checks, credit cards and, of course, cash.
A Preview Night will be held at the Washington School on Friday, Nov. 7 from 6 to 8 p.m. Only live and silent auction items will be available for preview. CCLC! is accepting absentee bids on that evening for individuals who will not be able to attend the Saturday night auction. Nothing will be sold in advance.
All funds from this auction will go toward the Scholarship Fund for the preschool and school age programs.
CCLC mainstreams the economically disadvantaged and developmental^ delayed children with families who can afford full tuition by soliciting donations for scholarship.
The Center also provides Rappahannock’s Head Start program for 18 three and four year olds.
“We meet the needs of families, without regards to economic status, by blending funding streams of private donations, public and private grants, tuition, and fundraising events like the auction. CCLC is more than a charity, more than a private school,” says Rose Ann Sharp, Executive Director.
“We would not be here today, celebrating our 27th anniversary of service to families in Rappahannock if it were not for community donor Support. We could never afford to have the quality of programs we have today in this rural community without hardworking volunteers and Board members who donate time and talents to help
