Christmas Auction Fundraiser & Potluck Dinner

Silent Auction-

Monday, December 12th thru Monday,

December 19th-ends at 7 P M

Live Auction & Potluck Dinner-

Monday, December 19th –5-7 P M

It’s time again for some holiday cheer here at the McLeod County Historical Society.  We are continuing our Society Christmas Potluck and gift auction, as members, volunteers, and the public have great fun bidding on all the great gifts that local businesses so generously donate and the wacky white elephant gifts brought by the guests!  If you have not been to our  Christmas Potluck and Auction dinner, here’s how it works.  Everyone brings a dish to pass and a gift to be auctioned off, with all proceeds going to support the Museum’s mission, preserving McLeod County History!  The gifts must be wrapped, that’s part of the fun, and can be a white elephant, something old or new, or a re-gift that did not suit you, we won’t tell anyone.  It’s great fun seeing who ends up with what gift, and we all take turns watching as the lucky, or maybe not so lucky, bidders open their gifts.  We will also be continuing our Silent Auction Fundraiser.  Last year we were lucky enough to have many items donated by local area businesses, and this year’s generosity has been even greater.  The Silent Auction Items will be on display and ready for bidding, starting on Monday, December 12th and open to the public for bids through Monday, December 19th.  All bidding ends at 7 P M on the final day, with winners being contacted via phone to collect and pay for their prizes!
