Bahelorette/Bachelor Auction at Tap Room

Sara and Amber before the Auction
My beautiful and brave friends Sara and Amber put themselves up on the auction block to raise money for Ignite a Dream. I was super impressed with their excitement for this charity and willingness to put themselves out there for a good cause;  I was so pleased to be able to attend the event and lend some moral support. They did a great job and raised over $500 between the two of them for the event plus, the $10 each of their friends paid for getting in that added up to another $70 or so; good job ladies!

The auction was held at the Tap Room and Bacardi was a sponsor for the drinks. I haven't had a rum and coke in a million years, not bad.

Nice crowd!
It was a fun time and a great opportunity to see some of our friends we hadn't seen in a while. There is also something about drinking at a charity event that makes me think less about the calories I'm consuming... it's for a good cause, right?

This guy was playing the crowd but the bid didn't get high enough for him to take off his shirt.

Georges Schemagin was auctioned off as well and was a photographer for the event.

In case you are sad you missed these bachelors and bachelorettes there's another auction coming up on November 12th at the Ranch. Charity Bash is putting on the event to benefit SafePlace.

I "hear" your lover boy Roger "El Matador" Huerta will be there. I'm sure you will find a way to stalk the event! Maybe he reads your blog and will invite you as his private guest.

I'm beginning to learn this blog is just a way for you to out my used-to-be-secret weirdness, thanks. Just fyi, he's even raising money for one of my favorite charities... isn't he on my good side; oh yeah, and I just wished him luck on his FB page. I'm a nerd.

Yes you are a little bit strange and the world knows it now. I'll see if I can get Roger to stop by J. Blacks to say Hi to you.

I just emailed back and forth with the photographer from Green Tee Photo and apparently Roger Huerta was at this event!!! OMG, how did I miss him. Alas, a missed opportunity, for what I'm not exactly sure.
