It's Auction Time Again!


Back by popular demand!  A benefit auction and plate sale for the 4-H program in Richmond County will be held on March 5th at Browder Park in Rockingham, North Carolina.  Proceeds will be used locally to support leadership and youth development through programs ranging from school enrichment programs, to summer camps, Summer Fun classes, leadership trainings and club activities. 

In these trying financial times, we need to support our young people more than ever.  By providing items for auction or making a donation, you enable us to continue to expand the opportunities for Richmond County youth. Please plan to join us on March 5th to enjoy a night out while purchasing some great items.


We are asking for community support to continue increasing the opportunities we are able to offer the future leaders of our county, state, and nation. Volunteers will be soliciting business donations over the next few weeks, and are looking forward to offering a variety of items. Tom McInnis and associates of Iron Horse Auction Company, Inc. have kindly donated their services as the Auctioneers for this 4-H program.

Spaghetti plates will be available from 5 pm to 7 pm for $6 per plate.  So come out & enjoy dinner, while you look over the Auction items before the bidding starts. 

If you would like to mail a donation, please make the check payable to Richmond County 4-H and mail to PO Box 1358, Rockingham, NC 28380.  If you would like to donate any items, you can bring them to the Cooperative Extension Office at 123 Caroline Street, or call 997-8255 for an item pickup.  Donations are tax deductible. 

Be sure to mark March 5th on your calendars!  We are looking forward to seeing everyone at Browder Park for the plate sale from 5 pm-7 pm and at the auction starting at 7 pm.  Thank you for helping 4-H make the best better for Richmond County youth!

Richmond County 4-H is proud to be supported by the United Way of Richmond County.
