Efforts to raise the much needed target figure of £70,000 to make the local church wind and water-tight received a boost with the news that the jam-packed Silent Auction, recently held at Pencaitland Bowling Club, raised the impressive sum of £3,368.83.
That figure may well rise further as some contributions were still coming in after the event.
It seems this sets the fund-raising effort well on their way towards hitting the target amount that will ensure the church can be adequately protected from the elements.
Don’t forget the further events still to come. these include the Christmas Fayre on the 26th of November in the Carriage House and a Quiz Night on the 3rd December in the Winton Arms. More details can be found here.
As part of Pencaitland Parish Church’s efforts to raise much needed funds for repairs to the building, church members have organised a Silent Auction on Saturday the 12th of November in Pencaitland Bowling Club.
Tickets for the auction can be purchased before the day from either the Post Office, Granny Shop or Spar. You can also call 01875 340 803.
On the evening (7:15pm to 10:00pm) there will be food, tea, and coffee provided or BYOB. In all there will be 60 auction lots including some quality items and out-of-the-ordinary experiences to be won. So come and enjoy an evening of bidding, banter and, of course, the buffet!
Examples of some of the items available at the silent auction include:
