TRI-LAKES AERIE 4279 EAGLES RAISES $7,615

The annual Tri-Lakes Aerie 4279 Eagles Benefit Auction was Saturday afternoon February 28, at the El Dorado Springs Eagles Club. The benefit raised $7,615 for the Hope Center, our local food pantry. Several businesses and individuals donated items for the auction as well as monetary donations. The Auxiliary ladies had a noon lunch available, donating the proceeds. The Eagles Riders also supported the benefit with a cash donation. Members sold raffle tickets for a Henry Golden Boy .22 Mag that was won by Jeremi McCormick and a Henry Golden Boy .22 long rifle won by John Julian.

Thank you to all Eagle and Auxiliary members for helping with this annual project. A big thank you to the community and businesses for their support.
