Clearmont Community Center Auction to Be Held September 18
The Clearmont Community Center, will hold their 47th Annual Fundraising Dinner and Auction on Sunday, September 18, at 5:30 p.m. in the Community Center. Funds raised go to the upkeep of the building.
Supper will be barbecued ribs and cheesy potatoes. There will be donations from businesses and individuals from the Sheridan, Buffalo, and Clearmont area. There is always a wide variety of donations at the auction, many times including home-baked goods.
The Clearmont Community Center Foundation started in the early 70s, when a group of Clearmont residents purchased the old Garretson Store Building on Front Street for $1. The old building, built in 1904, had been general store for many years, but by 1972, it had been neglected for many years.
The group, with the help of high school shop class, that cleaned up much of the building before remodeling could start, replaced the roof, put down new flooring, added bathrooms and kitchens.
The building now houses the Clearmont Library, a branch of the Sheridan County Library system, as well as providing meeting and activities space to local groups.
Brannian Auctions LLC, will again donate their time at Sunday night’s auction. As in previous years, they will add a lot of humor to the auction.
