CET Action Auction Co-Chairs Jackie Ewing and Mike Raulston kicked off the 2007 Action Auction!
As you look through these photos, you'll see all the terrific people who helped with phones and behind the scenes: volunteers from Netherland Rubber; Delta; National City; Alpha Kappa Psi; Vietnam Veterans of America, Chapter 10; Alpha Kappa Psi; and, two great groups from the University of Cincinnati: the Society of Women Engineers and Cincinnatus Scholars.
In front of the camera, Lilias Folan joined us to help emcee, as did former Auction chair and 700WLW star Jim Scott. And we had terrific auctioneers -- too many to mention but you'll see them as you look through our pictures and we appreciate their help.
Many thanks to LaRosa's for their support of the Auction, especially to everyone from the Corporate office who came to CET to fix and serve food to the volunteers!
