23rd Annual
Kent County 4-H Basket Auction
Sunday, August 29, 2021
Delaware State Fair – Delmarva Building
Basket Preview – 2:00 PM Auction – 3:00 PM
The Kent County 4-H program is hosting the 23rd Annual Basket Auction. A Basket Preview at 2:00 PM will be followed by the Basket Auction starting at 3:00 PM. 4-H Clubs and Friends of 4-H from across the county are creating baskets full of treasures that will be auctioned. A silent auction will also be part of the afternoon’s festivities. We are in need of some additional auction items. If you would like to make a donation to either the silent or live auctions, please contact the Kent County Extension Office.
A portion of the proceeds goes to the Kent County Jr. Council, Leaders Association, and Links, with the remaining proceeds going to the Delaware 4-H Foundation. The Foundation uses funds raised to support many 4-H educational experiences for our young people throughout the state. Scholarships to 4-H Camps, leadership experiences including National 4-H Congress and Conference, and 4-H Club Grants are only a few of the opportunities made possible by generous supporters of the Delaware 4-H Foundation.
Tickets for the afternoon are $5.00. Ticket price includes a seat, water, and packaged snacks. Please reserve your spot by purchasing tickets at this link:
The deadline to purchase tickets is Friday, August 20, 2021. Local food trucks will be on-site if you wish to purchase food. Tables and chairs as well as bleachers will be available for seating.
Please consider joining us on the 29th for an afternoon of fellowship and fun. Plan to join in the spirited bidding on a wide variety of items. There is sure to be something for everyone.
