Paris, Tenn.–Volunteers were at work early this morning, preparing for a big day at the Henry County Helping Hand Radio Auction. A total 290 items have been donated by members of the First United Methodist Church and today’s auction will also include a Silent Auction held at the church.
70 items will be involved in the Silent Auction and you can look at photographs of the items on the Helping Hand Facebook page–like you can all of the 290 items. The Silent Auction will be held at the church until 3:30 p.m. During that time, a chili supper will be served at the church until about 2 p.m.
A wide variety of items will be on the 22 slates today, from pies, cakes, casseroles, gift boxes, Pride of Paris baskets, soups, carved walking sticks, crocheted blankets and throws, live plants in decorative planters and much more.
The auction begins at noon today. Bid high and bid often by calling 731 644 1695. You can listen on our stations WTPR 101.7 FM and WTPR 710 AM and you can listen on our website at www.radionwtn. Click on “Listen Now” and WTPR.
