PYC Date Auction- Saturday, January 12th!
By Remi McClain
The PYC (Philanthropic Youth Council) is organizing a fundraiser for this Saturday that will be at the Boys and Girls Club starting at 6:30 and will be wrapped up by about 9:15pm. All proceeds from the night will be granted to local organizations such as the RVNA, Meals on Wheels, Holiday Gift fund, etc in May.
The night is a "date auction" and the admission is $10. There will also be refreshments for sale. The club staff and six PYC chaperones will be there too. The auction is comprised of high school students from each of the four grades who have all agreed respectfully go on a date to be arranged after the auction. Some of them are planning to go on double dates. There will be two senior boys acting as "Mom and Dad" asking questions of the contestants and different sections such as karaoke and movie trivia. The PYC doesn't expect the auction prices to be much more than $5 or $10; it is more about the fun of the event. If parents wish to make a donation, we will accept it in the form of cash for bidding or a check if they do not plan on bidding.
For any questions or concerns please contact Deidre McClain, an advisor of the PYC, at dmcclain@snet.net or 203-431-9431.
