$10,000 retail in auction items
We're working on the food like little elves. The food will be reasonable priced. Hot dogs are a dollar. Chips 50 cents. I think Bar-b-q will probably be 2$. We're going to have pepsi products, ice water, juice boxes for the little folks and goldfish crackers. There will also be pizza.
The children's games have all been delivered. We're going to have carnival favorites like ring toss and skeet ball. With a few newer ones such as flip flop faces. We're also going to have the "cupcake walk".

Can you believe it?
Listen to The Chief 92.5 FM! The Chief is running announcements all the time about the fundraiser. A big Thank You to Ryan at The Chief for working so hard to make it happen. The Chief will be live at the fundraiser from 2 - 3 pm Saturday as part of their Friends and Neighbors Tour.
You can read Bo's Story in the News Gazette here. A big Thank You also for Deb Pressey and the News Gazette for sharing Bo's Story.
Lots and lots of small locally owned businesses have donated and donated to make this possible. We couldn't have done it without all the support. We'll continue to update all the businesses as quickly as we can in the sidebar.
Another big Thank You to Lance of Dixon Graphics. I called him a two or three weeks ago and asked for his help and he has been unwavering in his support. All of those yellow signs up all over town were from Dixon Graphics and the programs are also being printed by Dixon Graphics.

Jill asked in the comments how she can participate if you are out-of-town. Well, there's really no way to bid long-distance. If you would like to donate something and can get it here quickly then you can send along an item. Someone can also make a monetary donation to the fund. The checks can be made out to Holy Cross Catholic Church - Bo Porter Fund and mailed to the church.
