Wells Branch is AWESOME!!! Special THANKS to ALL who participated in our July 4th Silent Auction! Every year just keeps getting better and better!
by Debby Thompson, WBNA President
The Wells Branch Neighborhood Association would like to thank our neighbors for coming out and supporting our organization through the Silent Auction. We had an incredible turnout and truly appreciate your support once again in our efforts to fund our neighborhood activities over the next year. Our Fourth Fest Silent Auction brought in $7,872.50 last year, up from $5,424.58 the previous year (which was a record). This year, we raised $6708.00, a decrease of $1,164.50 over last year, but still a generous amount.
As most of you know, this is our big fundraiser. Its purpose is to raise enough money to pay for National Night Out, the annual Easter Egg Hunt, participation in Halloween events, Friday night at Luminary Fest in December and to help with our educational/safety programs and candidate forums. We met our goal thanks to all of YOU! Whether you were a donor, a buyer, a volunteer, or the WB MUD, who so graciously allows us use of their facilities, you all made a tremendous difference and the WBNA is grateful!
When you see the neighbors listed below, please thank them for supporting our community. In addition, we hope you’ll patronize these businesses and join us on October 4th for Wells Branch’s National Night Out Against Crime.
