MATT LIGHT NAMED CELEBRITY AUCTIONEER FOR BRIDGES TO COLLEGE BENEFIT

New England Patriot and Greenville native Matt Light will be the celebrity auctioneer for an auction and hog roast to benefit Bridges to College on Saturday, June 23, at the Turtle Creek Golf Course in Greenville.

“We’re hoping people will come out for a fun, entertaining evening that will support a good cause,” said Marlise McCallister, organizer for the event.

The auction will feature about 10 items including: a football helmet autographed by Matt Light, a Frigidaire 2-temperature zone wine cooler, Cincinnati Reds vs. St. Louis Cardinal tickets (Aug. 24), Cincinnati Reds vs. St. Louis Cardinal tickets (Aug. 25), Indianapolis Colts tickets, Ohio State Football tickets, Darke County YMCA family membership, Sound Bar with wireless subwoofer, and a 32-inch high definition television.

The hog roast and auction will begin at 6 p.m. Saturday, June 23, immediately following the Karlh McCallister Memorial Golf Outing, at the Turtle Creek Golf Course, 6545 State Route 36 East, Greenville.

“We’ve scheduled Gary Hill for the evening entertainment after the auction,” McCallister said. “People can come for dinner, the auction and evening entertainment.”

Proceeds from the auction benefit Bridges to College, a non-profit organization, that helps students go to college. It provides educational programming, one-on-one mentoring and scholarships for students in the Greenville and Ansonia School Districts.

Tickets for the hog roast and auction must be purchased in advance. They are $10 each and may be purchased at Hansbarger Home Solutions, 548-3174, at Turtle Creek Golf Course, 548-3563, or online at the Bridges to College website, www.bridges2college.org.
