The silent auction annually provides a fun opportunity to purchase quality items at under-market value. Proceeds from the sale of the items, which are donated by community businesses, go directly to Rosewood Roots and Wings Foundation, committed to helping to fund endeavors for people with developmental disabilities.

Rosewood Rodeo’s Silent Auction on Oct. 4 is part of the 21st Annual Rodeo, held at Barton County Fair Expo III Indoor Arena, two miles west on 10th and Patton Road, Great Bend. In conjunction with the rodeo’s grand entry, the Rosewood Silent Auction will begin at 10 a.m. Bids will be accepted throughout the day until the auction closes at 2:45 p.m. Winning bidders will be contacted following the silent auction, so they don’t have to be present to win.

During the auction, there are more than 70 items to bid on, ranging in retail value from approximately $10 to more than $400. Items include a wide variety of merchandise like a 32-inch LG Smart TV, a DeWalt Impact Driver Kit, a Browning Rechargeable Spotlight and a Halo Essential Griddle Kit. Also included for bidding are multiple gift baskets, and many wonderful gift cards, certificates and passes.

All the auction items were donated by community businesses and individuals as a fundraiser to Rosewood Roots & Wings Foundation. Rosewood’s non-profit Roots & Wings Foundation provides unmet medical and therapeutic needs, legal assistance, along with educational opportunities to people who have developmental disabilities.
