Dessert auction

to fund Gulch

Tekoa’s annual Slippery Gulch fireworks dessert auction will be Friday, May 17, at 6 p.m. in the Tekoa Community Center.

In a new addition this year, it will be followed by a dance.

The evening begins at 6 p.m. with a taco dinner (donations accepted) followed by the auction of dessert items.

Proceeds support the fireworks for the Slippery Gulch Days celebration May 17.

In addition, funds will be raised for Rextyn Ramerez, a Tekoa boy with leukemia. His parents are Tiburcio and McKenzie Ramerez.

The dance will feature live music by Chris Ellenburger.
