Decoy Silent Auction Raises $1,161!
Joe Suchecki reports that the DBC Silent Auction for the remaining decoys in the Craig Holderness estate donation garnered $1,161, bringing the total raised through the sale of these decoys to more than $3,100! The high bids went to the Female Wood Duck, a real beauty, and the Blue-winged Teal, another excellent piece. The proceeds from these sales will fund a future donation to a regional bird conservation program. Stay tuned for details on that. THANK YOU, DBC members, for your generosity and participation, and thanks to Joe for organizing and administering the decoy sales.
