If you are interested in a fun opportunity to purchase items at under-market-value prices, then come by Rosewood Rodeo Oct. 7. The 19th Annual Rodeo will be held at Great Bend Expo Complex – Barton County Fair Expo III Indoor Arena, two miles west on 10th and Patton Road.
In conjunction with Rosewood Rodeo’s Grand Entry, the Rosewood Silent Auction will begin at 10 a.m. Then bids will be accepted throughout the day until the Auction closes at 3 p.m. Winning bidders will be contacted following the silent auction, so they don’t have to be present to win.
During the auction, there are approximately 70 items to bid on, ranging in retail value from $10 to more than $250. These items are all new products and most likely will sell for under their retail value.
The items were donated by community businesses and individuals as a fundraiser to Rosewood Roots & Wings Foundation. Auction items include a wide variety of merchandise like an acoustic guitar with accessories, tools, artist pieces, a Green Mountain Grills Pizza Oven, a Halo Elite1B Countertop Griddle, multiple gift baskets, and many gift cards, certificates and passes.
