SHERBURNE – The Sherburne Historic Park Society (SHPS) is hosting its Holiday Extravaganza Quarter Auction Paddle Party Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Sherburne American Legion. Everyone is invited to dig up a few rolls of quarters, head on down to the auction, and with any luck bring home a new treasure for as little as a dollar. The admission price for the fundraiser is $5 and will come with a free raffle ticket.

Participants can preview the 60 auction items at 9:30 a.m. before the bidding, which will begin at 10. The items have been donated for the fundraiser by individuals and local business. Each bid will cost attendees a quarter, with the bidding on each item lasting until there is a winner.

The fundraiser is part of the SHPS’s ongoing effort to construct a historical center for the Sherburne community. The group needs to raise $140,000 in order to build a Sherburne Museum. The proposed museum will be a 40 by 60 foot building located in the Sherburne Historic Park, on 11 School St., adjacent to the pavilion next to the old Sherburne school house.
