"Super-Auction" to benefit Father Joe's Villages
Father Joe's Villages
This taxidermy stuffed water buffalo is up for auction.
You'll be hard pressed to find something that's "not" on today's "for sale" list at the giant auction downtown, benefiting Father Joe's Villages.
Oh sure, there are the usual items: jewelry, cars, trucks and motor homes, a few boats, plenty of chairs, tables and bicycles; all the things you'd expect to find at a big community auction. . . but a stuffed pig, antelope or water buffalo? And we're not talkling about the small stuffed animals kids snuggle up with at night, no, these are the real deal, full-sized animals, stuffed by a professional taxidermist.
You'll get your chance to drive something new home this afternoon at 2:00 o'clock. You can preview all the items that will be auctioned off beginning at 10:00 this morning. Where? . . 3350 E street. It's going to be crowded so go early and take your patience along with your check book, credit card and any spare change you might have lying around the house.
For a look at all the stuff that's up for grabs check out Father Joe's Villages Web site.
