Imagine a whole collection of ONE Of a KIND items! Would you like one for your very own? Come to the Fort Recovery Historical Society’s 2011 One of a Kind Auction on Sunday evening, October 16, and one of those unique items can be yours! You will be greeted warmly and offered a splendid array of homemade hors d'oeuvres and desserts while you participate in the auctions and socialize with friends and neighbors from around the area.

What one-of-a-kind items might tickle YOUR fancy? A guitar signed by Billy Rae Cyrus? A table for 8 at the St. Anthony Dinner Theatre? VIP box seats at Eldora Speedway? A handmade and decorated doll house or barn? The use of a condo in Florida? A Van Trees painting? Handmade afghans or wood items? That’s just a sample of the 100+ items visitors may bid on.

Where else could you spend a whole evening having an exciting time, enjoying delicious food AND supporting a great cause* – all for the price of a $10 ticket? It can’t be done! Seating is limited, and tickets go fast, so get yours now. Tickets will be available at Fort Recovery banks in September or call 419-375-4384 to reserve a ticket.  Tickets also available at the door.  For more information, call  419-375-2308 or email helen.lefevre@frontier.com.
