The Boys & Girls Club Civil War Auction Thursday, November 15, 2018 at the Salem Convention Center Doors open at 5:30pm. We are counting down to Thursday, November 15, 2018! Why? Because one of Salem Oregon's most cherished events, the Bonaventure Senior Living Annual Civil War Dinner & Auction, will be back at The Salem Convention Center! The Civil War Dinner & Auction is a chance for University of Oregon Ducks and Oregon State University Beavers fans to wear their team colors and have some fun before the big 'Civil War' match-up in Corvallis, OR on November 23rd. The event raises funds for Boys & Girls Club of Salem, Marion & Polk Counties, a community treasure that promotes academic success, healthy lifestyles, character and leadership skills to approximately 10,500 kids in local clubs, athletics, and outreach programs. The event starts with a silent auction offering over 150 packages while guests mingle with the Duck and Beaver mascots and cheerleaders. The Silent Auction is followed by a gourmet dinner and live auction packed full with premiere vacations, experiences, and items. We could tell you more, but we'd rather show you! Just take a look at how much fun we had a few years ago. Click here for Tickets to the Civil War Dinner & Auction, see you November 15th!
