DR Dinner & Auction Tonight! |
Friday, April 8, 6:00 p.m. |
Thank you! We've sold 94 tickets for tonight's DR dinner and auction to support our mission team and school scholarships in El Pedregal, more than in any other year! Since this a catered event, no tickets will be sold at the door. The activities start at 6:00 p.m. at the Cotton Corner, an elegant event space located at 101 N. Ashley Street in downtown Valdosta. Speakers include our Senior Warden, Bill Querin, and our Rector, Fr. Dave Johnson, both of whom are veteran DR missioners. Our auctioneer is the one-and-only Duke Guthrie from the VSU Theatre & Dance program. Come prepared for a Covington's catered Dominican-style dinner and to participate in the live and silent auctions -- or just leave a donation in the basket! The bar (donations gratefully accepted) will feature wine and Dominican beer - Presidente brand, straight from Santo Domingo and it's good....
