A week in Maui. A basketball autographed by Kobe Bryant. An African Safari for two. An autographed jersey from Chris Paul of the Los Angeles Clippers. A custom Harley. What do these have in common?
They are among the biggest items available at the 36th Annual Auction for the Boys & Girls Club of Simi Valley on June 21.
"We have been blessed so far with donations of really impressive items, services and travel packages," said Virginia Hayward, chief executive officer for the Boys & Girls Club. "And we still have a few weeks left so we're reaching out into the community for further donations of items and services, especially smaller or mid-size items for the silent auction."
So far the Live Auction is packed with an impressive lineup:
- An African Safari for two valued at $5,950
