Tree of Life UUs Have Monster-ously Good Auction Tonight




Monster-ously Good Auction
Members of the Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation, 5603 West Bull Valley Road in McHenry, will have a Monster-ously Good Auction tonight Saturday, November 2, 2013 from 7 to 10 pm.
“Ghosts, goblins, and ghoulies still hanging around from Halloween will be looking for bargains,” according to Dave Ayres, chair of the congregation’s Stewardship Committee.  “We have great offers of personal and business services, meals, get-a-ways, and tickets to theaters and sporting events for sale in the silent auction and valuable items including a vintage Brunswick Panatrope circa 1923, hand crafted jewelry, a quilted wall hanging, many works of decorative and fine art, and other merchandise in the open bid sale.”
In addition to the silent and open auctions, the evening will include live musical entertainment by the Frothy Boys and others and refreshments.  Kids will conduct their own auction of items they bring from home or which have been donated using play money.  A fun and age appropriate movie will also be shown.
Admission is free to the public.  Costumes are optional, but add to the fun.
There is plenty of parking.
