Chamber Connection: CDCC Seeks Donations for Holiday Gift Auction
Hey, central Delaware and beyond – The Central Delaware Chamber of Commerce (CDCC) needs your help. It’s hard to believe this is the last week of September, and October is right around the corner. However, it is even harder for the staff at the CDCC to believe that their 20th Annual Holiday Gift Auction is only about a month away. One of the CDCC’s most anticipated and highly attended events will return to the community on the evening of Wednesday, October 25, 2023, at Maple Dale Country Club from 5-8 p.m. Mark your calendars and schedule reminders in your phone now so you don’t miss an amazing evening of community, food and drinks, networking, and of course a live AND silent auction.
To bring the most unique and special items to our attendees (including you.), this nonprofit needs your help in donating an item, product, service, or themed basket that would delight excited bidders. The CDCC would not be able to execute this fun, and fuzzy-feeling event to the community without their generous donors and their one-of-a-kind donations.
Use this event to get ahead of your holiday shopping this year, while you bring your item to eager bidders. The CDCC has no doubt that guests will find something that catches their interest or the interest of their loved ones with your donation. The CDCC’s Holiday Gift Auction has something for everyone, thanks to local member businesses.
