This is for any club member who is not aware of our yearly Auction to earn money for the club. This year our club auction will be on Sept. 3rd which is the Saturday during the 5-day Common Dig Labor Day weekend. This is a great time for all. So if you have some things you no longer want, you could donate them to the auction and let it benefit the club or clubhouse. We have a great time and the weekend is full of fun. Be sure to come if you can.


We are trying to see if any of the ladies in the club would be interested in "outings", such as Chimney Rock, Grandfathers Mtn., Blowing Rock, Spruce Pine, Biltmore and more. If so, check with: Susie Beauford - (828) 738-8274 Susie has some great ideas that would be fun for all, but at this point we just want to see who would be interested. Call Susie because it will take time to plan.
