On Sunday November 30, 2014, the Rotary Club of Bathurst will hold their 12th “Radio Auction” on MAX 104.9. Proceeds will be donated to the various Rotary initiatives. We are soliciting your support to help us meet these important needs.

Donations of items to auction off, gift certificates, and cash donations are welcome. A receipt will be provided for each item received.

Auction items will be published in the Northern Light and frequently on air with MAX 104.9.

During the day of the radio auction, the auctioneer will regularly acknowledge the generosity of your business during the 4-hour radio broadcast from 1pm – 5pm. Together, we can elevate the awareness of your generosity while, at the same time, raise funds for an extremely worthwhile cause.

We ask you to please offer us your support in the form of auction merchandise, services or cash donations to assist us in this effort. If you have any questions, please ask your canvasser.

If you have not yet been contacted to donate, please contact a Rotarian prior to the November 30th broadcast.

Thank-you for your generosity,
