Auction to fund disaster relief in Tennessee and beyond
Westminster describes a weekend auction at the Ag Center to raise money for disaster relief by Brethren workers. Volunteers from Frederick County and other Mid-Atlantic areas partner with quilts, general auction items, and food booths to fund aid for floods, fires, and other disasters including Carter County Tennessee. The effort supports regional and overseas relief, with last year’s haul near fortyfive thousand dollars and a strong turnout of about one thousand attendees.
