Silent Auction To Benefit Endless Mts. Foundation

Where can you buy gift certificates, antiques, postcards of times gone by, or local art and not even speak a word? Where can you find spring bulbs ready for fall planting that will delight you in the future with abundant spring color and beauty? Where can you find good buys on everyday items and gift certificates to treat yourself or friends to extraordinary baked treats? The committee from the Endless Mountains Medical Care Foundation isn’t offering items from soup to nuts, but they do cover items from crocus bulbs to peanut butter pie.

Come to the Rosemont Inn Bed and Breakfast on Lake Avenue in Montrose, PA from 2-5 p.m. on Saturday, October 14, and participate in the Silent Auction, which will benefit the Endless Mountains Medical Care Foundation.

You will enjoy live music by members of the Buddy Spencer Orchestra, refreshments, and a visit with friends as you place bids on the many varied items. You can also make the community a safer place by supporting the local hospital and enhancing your home, or finding a unique gift for someone special.

All proceeds benefit Endless Mountains Medical Care Foundation.
