FWO’s 4th annual “Lucky Number Auction” is a success!
Freedom Work Opportunities inc. would like to thank all of the volunteers, attendees and donors who participated in our 4th annual Lucky Number Auction. Over 140 attendees had a great time enjoying winning the 200 auction items, door prizes, 50/50 raffle and concessions.
We especially want to thank the Weeks family for sponsoring this year’s event. Thank you to the many volunteers who devoted their Saturday to help make this event fun and successful. We also could not have done this without the help of the many people who spent their time making up the gift baskets for this event, especially Cathy Weeks, who assembled nearly 50 beautiful gift baskets herself. Additionally, we would like to thank: The Milford Times, Hometown Directories, Oakland Press, and the local businesses that posted our flyer's and helped get the word out to the community.
Many thanks to the following individual donors and local businesses:
Pontiac Municipal Golf Course, Airway Lanes of Waterford, Caring For Your Family, Century Bowl in Waterford, Old School Pokémon League, Sparkie’s Bar and Grill, Milford Baking Co., Comeback Inn of Highland, Tool Time Rentals of Highland, 59 West in Highland, Kristi Crawford, Vicki Katchever, Chip Weeks, Renee Stone, Gloria Woods, JoAnn Whipple, , Hugh Dearing, Virginia Mathiesen, Cathy Weeks, Freedom Treasures Resale stores of Highland, Milford and Grand Blanc, FWO Board of Directors, FWO Directors and the staff at our Grand Blanc, Middle Rd & Milford Rd. locations.
