Luncheon and Fundraising Auction Held at Anaheim White House on May 22nd, 2013

On May 22nd OC Walk to Remember hosted a Luncheon and Fundraising Auction at the beautiful Anaheim White House Restaurant.  Tickets to the luncheon sold out quickly and included a three-course meal as well as complimentary wine and valet parking.   All proceeds from the event benefitted OC Walk to Remember’s Community Outreach and Support Programs.

The 100 guests in attendance were welcomed by OC Walk to Remember Staff and provided with an OC Walk to Remember Tote Bag containing a bidder card and auction catalogue.  Guests were then able to enjoy an hour in the sunny courtyard silently bidding on over 40 incredible silent auction items and 10 additional premium items that professional auctioneer, Rick Werner, closed via a Mini Live Auction.  All items were generous donated and included: a week-long stay a Jepun Bali Villas, an astoundingly beautiful Balinese resort; a two-night stay, and two 60 min spa treatments, at the renowned Enchantment Resort & Mii Amo Spa in Sedona, Arizona; a swanky indoor/outdoor cabana for the day at the popular Pacific Edge Hotel in Laguna Beach; and a new Lexus for a weekend provided by Lexus of Mission Viejo.
