Bidding now open for Belltown Winter Wonderland items

East Hampton--Village Lions and Garden Clubs invite you to the  “Belltown Winter Wonderland” Silent Auction

The East Hampton Village Lions and Belltown Garden Clubs invite the public to view their silent auction holiday items at the East Hampton Public Library. Over 40 items will be on display and up for silent bids through Saturday December 8^th.  Many handsomely decorated swags, wreaths, centerpieces, and gift baskets are available.  Proceeds from this community-wide fund raiser will go to the East Hampton Food and Fuel Banks. 

The “Bells” theme was encouraged this year to lend support to our beloved Bevin Bell Company in light of the devastating fire last May.  Despite their setback, Bevin Bells donated 2 dozen bells, sleigh bells and “845” red bells, to incorporate into the silent auction items. 

The event culminates on Saturday, December 8^th in a Holiday Party at the Community Room, adjacent to the Library from 1 to 5 p.m. hosted by the Village Lions.  At this time, individuals can make final bids on their favorite holiday decoration items while enjoying refreshments and music.  The clubs will announce winning bidders at 4 p.m.  and will contact winners to arrange for item pick-up.

President Linda Brogan adds:  “Let’s light-up East Hampton for a common cause, to benefit those in need in our community during this time of giving.”

Last year over $1500 was raised for the East Hampton Food and Fuel banks through this club project.
