March 18, 2009, 6 p.m.: Auctions and Antiques Seminar! This popular seminar teaches you all about recognizing and appraising the value of desirable items that turn up at auctions. It's free to the public, and qualifies for a full year's four-hour continuing education certification for licensed auctioneers ($20 processing fee).

Starting in the spring, we are looking forward to quite a season of high-quality auctions!

May 16 is the big Good Shepherd Home Health and Hospice auction, with high-end contributions already coming in!

An estate auction in late spring is planned as well, with a fine assortment of antique furniture, glass, china and other items as well (date not yet set).

Keep an eye on this page in 2009!

All the best for the new year,

Bob
