Finish – or even start and finish! – your holiday shopping, right down to the meals, while
helping local nonprofit Eastern Shore of Virginia Historical Society make up for this year’s lost fundraisers. Tune to WESR 103.3 FM this Saturday, Nov. 21, at 9 a.m. for the organization’s Holiday Auction. When your favorite items come up, just call in to bid; the number will be provided. All proceeds benefit the nonprofit’s operating account and will allow the group to continue to present educational programming for all ages; host field trips; maintain two properties on the National Register of Historic Places; offer online access to extensive Eastern Shore archives and collections; and much more. Thank you to neighboring businesses for their generous contributions in this
challenging time. Items include:
Shrink wrap for as large as an 18-foot boat from Sandpiper Marine
An owl carving from Billy Crockett
