According to Bridge Lake Elementary School's Parent Advisory Committee co-president Denise Waldner, the annual dinner auction on Nov. 22 was a terrific success.
She credits Kris Verheul and Ed Stacy with what was called "the best dinner ever," and Donna Nivison, auctioneer extraordinaire, for its success.
Donna introduced auction item donors who were present and sincerely thanked them. "She was amazing," said Denise.
The chefs cooked 150 dinners and served 120, so the remaining food was immediately turned over to Bridge Lake Community School's Meals on Wheels program, Denise added.
"So I'm very happy – it all worked out well."
Denise made special mention of the generous auction donors, the buyers, and the volunteers.
When all is tallied, she expects the event will have raised some $11,000 for the school children.
