Book, Art Auction Supporting REACH

The Regional Equine & Agricultural Centre of Huron (REACH) is pleased to announce it will be holding a book and art auction, which will take place

on Saturday, March 21 at 4:00 p.m.

The event will be held at the Can-Am Equine Emporium, Western Fair Agriplex, in London, Ontario.

REACH is currently accepting collectible horse-related books and art by donation or consignment for its book and art auction. Artists or authors involved in the equine or agricultural industry are also encouraged to participate in this exciting event.

“With the bleak, cold winter months now upon us, we look at this event as the perfect opportunity for equine enthusiasts to come together for a good cause,” says Melanie Prosser, director of Program Services at REACH. “This event is just the start of the numerous educational and recreational opportunities that will be available through REACH – the possibilities are endless.”

REACH is a non-profit municipal corporation offering state of the art facilities in support of the Huron County region. Once the new Centre is complete, it will be a premier destination site for both equine and agricultural interests from around the world.

“As it is a catalogued auction, we ask that people kindly let us know by February 10th of the items they wish to donate or consign,” Prosser adds. “We’re quite excited about the items we’ve received so far.”

REACH is also looking for volunteers to assist with the sorting and cataloguing of the auction items in Clinton, as well as to participate the day of the auction in London. To make a donation or find out how you can participate, call 519-525-0682 or click here.

The Regional Equine & Agricultural Centre of Huron (REACH) is a non-profit Municipal Corporation functioning as a 'motel for education,' offering innovative programming, as well as recreational activities to support both the equine, agricultural and other industries.
