MCS Charity Auction brings in bargain hunters

Auctioneer Cal Yutzi of Yutzi Auctions took bids for a microwave, one of the multitude of items up for sale during the Mennonite Community Services Charity Auction at the Aylmer Curling Club on Saturday morning, June 28. In addition to the auction, there was a yard sale, and vendors were offering breakfast and lunch. A Mennonite take on Mexican, Latin and traditional fare was on the menu for lunch. Proceeds from the event went to support MCS programs in Aylmer and Mennonite Central Committee overseas projects. The auction and other attractions during the event usually raise about $40,000 each year.
