On Saturday, October 26, make plans to attend the Lend-A-Hand Auction with
Chris Nosari, Auctioneer. Open to the public, the auction begins at 10
a.m., in the parking lot across Hospital Drive from BRMC Main Entrance.
Look for the big tents! Cash, check, Visa and Mastercard accepted. Rain or shine.
Click here to view auction items online. All auction proceeds will also support the
four BRMC community support and health education houses. In 2012, more
than 16,000 people passed through these houses and took advantage of their
programs and services, most of which are free of charge. Without the Lend-A-Hand
campaign and generous community donations, we would not be able to keep
these houses open. Thank you for all you do for BRMC!
