The 2011 Christmas of Hope was another wonderful evening full of fun, great food and seeing family and friends who were filled with the holiday spirit! After an army of volunteers spent many hours setting up the auction and dinner areas, our guests arrived so the bidding could begin. We were honored to have 465 guests attend this year's event who donated approximately $150,000 to support the programs and services of Morning Star Sanctuary through the dinner, silent auction and live auction. We are sincerely grateful for the support and encouragement that was evident. Here are a few pictures from the evening...
The bidding was hectic and fun at the auction tables and visiting with friends was part of the process!
