Beginning Next Month
Rotary Online Auction

Planning is underway for our third annual online auction and holiday party. Please consider whether you or your friends and family members have items that could be added to this year's auction. For example, a large percentage of our proceeds in both 2024 and 2025 came from vacation rentals. 

The auction committee has been hard at work:

  • 8 vacation stays secured
  • At least two more being solicited

Other items secured include:

  • Guns
  • A band performance at your next event
  • Lessons for tennis, fly fishing, Mahjong
  • Athletic pursuits including a pickle ball session at a private court, a YMCA family membership for a year, and hot yoga sessions
  • Infrared sauna visits
  • Taste of Thomasville food tour
  • A Vespa scooter
  • Ceramic art

The list is continuing to grow! If you have access to a phenomenal vacation spot or other auction item or are willing to help underwrite the events, please connect with Marta Jones-Turner or auction team members Marcy Sizemore, Gretchen Bickel, Mary Beth Donalson, Laura Pike, Kellie Merck, James Bue, Arthur Wigfall or David Sofferin.


The auction will end on Thursday, Dec. 3 at our annual holiday party. The auction benefits the Big Impact Project, supporting fresh produce markets — which distributed 70,000 pounds of food last year, provides vegetable grow bags at two markets each year, and more.  RSVP for the event here.
