Briarwood community, you definitely showed up and helped us kickoff this auction year in a big way! Thank you to everyone who joined us at the Auction Kickoff Party! And a special thank you to our generous hosts and all of those who helped make it such a fantastic evening. Shout outs to co-hosts Nick & Erin Reddell and Mark & Terra Snyder, Brett Lentz and Emily Gafford for providing adult beverages, Josh & Kim Hill, Kevin & Deana Curtin, Jeff & Heather Rowe, Mike & Jessica Becker, Alex & Jamie Carr, Gary & Denise Wheeler for their contributions to food and Craig Dawson for the party planning. And of course, thank you to David Smith and Cindy Ormsby for opening up their lovely home to host us! We all know hosting over 100 people is a tall ask, so we truly appreciate their hospitality.

We collected some really amazing items for the Auction in March! Sports fans, who’s ready to start the bidding on some Kansas Jayhawk basketball tickets? Or maybe you’d like to check out the new KC Current stadium by attending a match? Looking to entertain friends? Be the highest bidder on the J Rieger & Co Experience or a beautiful bottle of wine. Behind on estate planning? Secure your family’s future by bidding on a trust-based estate plan. We’re off to a great start with items like these and more!
