Welles Shipman Ward House

The Auction at the Welles Shipman Ward House Sat., Oct. 2 co-chaired by Donna Henrikson and Henry and Janet von Wodtke continues to be a substantial fundraiser for the Society and a lot of fun for those involved. We thank the many volunteers, consignors and several consignors who gifted their items. After days of rain the weather cleared and it was beautiful. The Auction grossed approximately $34,763, netting the Society over $16,000.  This made the 2010 Auction our most successful ever. These numbers are approximates because some of the items that were consigned we anticipate will be gifted. As of now about $12,453 of the net comes from full donations from Chuck Snyder, Doris Armstead, Ellen Pratt, Anita Hochstein & James Cooke, David & Linda Obedzinski and Mary & Russell Collins.
