Hi all,

The sooner you know what auction items you are bringing, the better. I would like to get the descriptions written earlier this year, so we can post them to the list. If you could e-mail me the descriptions, it would be even better. If you have  items on Saturday, I will take them. I know we are all busy, but I know Sligo will come through. Thanks for your help.

Judy
