Y Auction advances YMCA move toward permanent home
The St. Charles County YMCA auctioned more than 400 items in Three Flags Ballroom raising funds toward a permanent site. Executive director Farney estimates about 24000 dollars profit from the second annual dinner auction, with bids including a home, automotives, a canoe and electronics. Additional gifts may be sought to complete land payments for a Cave Springs site, delaying building plans until land is paid for.
