MSOA, 2:00 Club Auction Details

The 2:00 Club, together with the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association, is pleased to announce that the 23rd annual Chinese Auction for Charity will take place on Sunday, December 18, 2011

at the DoubleTree Hotel (formerly the Holiday Inn), in Meadow Lands, Pennsylvania.

The event has raised more than $150,000 over the past 22 years for the benefit of worthy local charities as well as the Standardbred Retirement Foundation in New Jersey and New Vocations Racehorse Adoption in Ohio. All proceeds of the auction are donated to charity.

Doors officially open at 5:00 p.m. with the drawings to begin around 7:00 p.m. The auction continues to grow each year, and will be in the Grande Ballroom of the hotel this year. Buffet-style food will be provided along with a cash bar. Prizes can be viewed and tickets can be purchased beginning at 1:00 p.m. on the day of the event, and winners need not be present for the drawing.

Thanks to the many generous donors, the event raised $15,225 last year and the hope is to surpass that total this year. The 2:00 Club and MSOA invite prize donations to add to the 'prize list.' Some suggestions for gift donations include: gift certificates for area restaurants; basket of cheer; holiday decorative item or apparel; tickets to sporting events or theatre shows; horse supplies; items related to your business; lottery tickets; horse-related jewelry or clothing. All gifts are welcome and are tax deductible.

Prizes can be left at the MSOA Office during regular business hours. Please be sure to include your name with your donation. Prizes can also be sent to Janet Campbell, 2:00 Club President, 9711 Downing Place, North Huntingdon, PA 15642. Please contact the MSOA at 724-228-3644, email [email protected] or contact Janet Campbell at 724.331.2660 or [email protected] if you have any questions.
