Knights of Columbus Ladies Auxiliary to host quarter auction for the Oasis on Nov. 1

[October 26, 2013]  The Knights of Columbus Ladies Auxiliary will host a quarter auction on Friday, Nov. 1, to benefit the Oasis. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m., and the auction will begin at 6:30 p.m. This event is open to the public and will be in the banquet room of the Knights of Columbus, on Limit Street.

The cost of a paddle is $2 and a person may purchase up to five paddles. All proceeds from the event will go directly to the Oasis Senior Center. The organization's building downtown was damaged by fire in June.

Several vendors will also have tables of cash-and-carry items, and the Knights of Columbus will have their baskets available for purchase.

Shrimp, walleye or chicken strips, plus fries, will be available for $6, and the bar will be open.

The organizers said in a news release: "We are excited to be able to provide an opportunity for local vendors to display their products; all the while lending our support to the Oasis Senior Center. It is a vital part of the continued positive quality of life that seniors of Lincoln and Logan County deserve. And it's just a great time."
