Bake Sale/Silent Auction a success!
Well, today the youth held their bake sale/silent auction during the corn roast at FUMC. It was a big success! Almost all the items sold, and for more than their starting bid price, at that! All in all, the youth raised $170 to send to UMCOR to help flood victims in Pakistan. The efforts they put toward this event were fantastic. They made brownies, an origami flower arrangement, a needlepoint bookmark, lots and lots of cookies, and even made a beautiful painting of a classic car. Our youth are not only enthusiastic, but they are talented. Many of our parents also contributed to the event with homemade banana bread, cake, pie, and cupcakes. Thank you to all who participated and purchased these goods, and for supporting FUMC and UMCOR's effort to aid Pakistani flood victims!

I think everyone did a great job! If everyone is willing, we should have a fundraiser like this every month to raise money for charity or our youth group activities. Plus, the adults that were bidding seemed to really enjoy it :)
