Henderson Lions Club Offering Vacation to Gatlinburg, KY Castle, and More in 2022 Auction

After being forced to cancel last year's event due to the pandemic, the Henderson Lions Club live auction is back with several amazing items for you to bid on.

The last time the Club held the auction was February 2020, roughly a month before COVID made its way to Tri-State and shut everything down. That edition of the annual fundraiser raised $16,000. Like any non-profit, the group is hoping to exceed that amount with this year's event.

The auction will take place at Rookies Sports Bar at 117 2nd Street in Henderson on Saturday, February 19th. The night will begin with a buffet meal at 6:30 followed by the start of the live auction at 7:00.

Tickets for the auction are $75 each and are available now through Club members.
