across from Applebee's. The auction will
begin at 9:00 AM with auctioneer Fred Pollert, of Pollert's, Inc., and food
will be served throughout the day. The
Asset Auction effort is called "Renew Their Strength" with all
proceeds raised at the auction being applied towards the debt on the original
school loan for Trinity. Some ideas on

camper, RV, jewelry, tools, antiques, collectibles, coins, guns, art, business
equipment, livestock for slaughter, seed on deposit, farming equipment,
furniture, lawn or garden equipment, clean property, stocks and bonds, paid up
life insurance policies, etc. All
motorized vehicles and property need to have a clean and transferrable

you after the auction is complete.
