Sedona AZ (May 7, 2014) – The Humane Society of Sedona will host its Third Annual Help the Animals Auction on May 10th at the Elks Lodge located at 110 Airport Road in Sedona.
The auction has doubled in size in terms of donations received for the auction and funds raised via auction sales. The Humane Society attributes the success of this event to the quality auction items donated by their community partners, businesses and individual supporters. The items are wide in variety and price and therefore, HSS believes, there is something that will appeal to everyone who attends.
There will be a preview of auction items on the day of the event from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm before the live auction begins at 1:00 pm. A sample of the items that can be viewed and bid on include:
- Guitar signed by the iconic band Chicago (currently displayed at Sound Bites Grill in Sedona with a “Buy It Now” option)
- Tasting party for 20 at Vom Fass
- Gift certificates for local dining experiences as well as local excursions
