Silent Auction
Street Banners
The Bredenbury Centennial Committee have two activities which we invite anyone to participate in, if they wish. Following is a description of the activities.
The Bredenbury Centennial Committee will be holding a silent auction at its Celebrations on the weekend of August 2-5, 2013. If you would like to contribute to this auction, it would be very much appreciated. Items can be brought to the registration tables on Friday night or Saturday morning, or sent to the Bredenbury Town Office anytime between now and the celebration weekend.
Banners (2' x 4') will be placed on power poles around town. Each banner will have the Centennial Logo on it, as well as the name of any company or family who wishes to sponsor one. The banners are two sided. The cost is $150. If you wish to purchase a banner for display, please make cheques payable to “Town of Bredenbury Centennial”, and send to the following address by March 15. Please indicate the name (company, family or individual) that you wish included on the banner.
