42nd Annual Terrace Rotary Auction Has another successful conclusion.

Posted @ 11/3/2002 10:57:53 AM (PST)

The annual huge Terrace Rotary Auction ended on a high note with the big item, the all-expenses trip donated by Elan Travel, Air Canada Vactions and Air Jazz Trip for two from Terrace to Puerto Vallarta including 7 nights at the all inclusive Plaza Pelicanos Resort selling for $3,500. This was a bargain that a few people missed with its pre-auction value set at $3,689.

The final Wind-down hour was very productive for the Rotary club with many items fetching higher than their pre-auction list value.

The final total will not likely be available until tomorrow, however one Rotary member indicated that the club anticipates a net over $30,000.00 after all expenses on a book value of $57,000.00 in donated items.
