Ok updated flyer, new date March 24th and we will be able to have it at the Civic Center on 98 and not have to change venues. Please share as I took the old flyer with the old info down. Thank you to everyone who helps us share these events each month!

It’s come to our attention that the Fair and livestock show are the week of our next event. We are looking into this as we speak to the coordinator for the county civic center to try and find a more suitable date. Please bear with us as we are trying to accommodate a better fit to help Ashton. We will get back with you soon! In the meantime the new flyer will be taken down so it’s not shared with wrong info any further than it should be. We’ll keep you updated!

It is with a heavy heart that I informed everyone that we’re not going to be having a quarter auction December basically due to the American Legion closing down permanently at the last minute. They notified me Friday. I have been working to get us somewhere since.

Brian and I wish a very merry Christmas and happy new year to each of you and stay tuned as I will let you know as soon as I know where will be holding our events in the future. George Watson will be our next Quarter Auction in January.
