A supper, auction and dance will take place, with Vilsack speaking at 8 p.m. All items for the auction have been donated. Some of those items include a Polaris watercraft, a double reclining leather sofa, a pair of diamond earrings, autographed sports equipment, some green fees and much more. Food donated for the cause will be for sale. Auctioneer services, the live entertainment and DJ services for the dance have been donated.
Volunteers prepare the meal.
Admission to the auction will be by free-will cash donations. This project has been something that has yielded other positive results, Den Herder said. Other fund-raisers coming up will include a toy garage sale, and the local Kiwanis group wants to do a steak fry and pork chop fry to help raise money for the playground. Den Herder added that after the fund-raiser, the Arnolds Park Amusement Park will open for free admission to the public. She said the community has become involved as well.
