Hill style for local auction
« on: September 26, 2013, 12:56:00 PM »
Our community has a gentleman that is in a fight for his life against brain cancer.  He is undergoing treatment in Chicago.  In order to help with expenses we are having an auction fundraiser.  I was asked if I would be willing and able to donate a bow to the cause.  Here is my effort.  I know it's name, "Hope", has been done around here but I couldn't come up with a more fitting name.  I just hope it raises a lot of money and the winner likes it as much as I do.

And the weight and length is almost a "one size fits all" type bow. Great veneers.

That's awesome.  I hope it fetches the $$ that the bow and the gentleman in need deserves.

It's a local auction with auctioneer that talks 10 times faster than I think and is the funniest guy I know.  Really entertaining night for all that attend.  No way for people to bid...unless you make the trip to Tustin, Michigan next Saturday.  ;)
