The Tradition Continues:
The Holliston High School
Class of 2017 Hosts
Senior Auction
Most people have “stuff ” that
they no longer need—furniture,
housewares, sports equipment,
musical instruments, books, toys
Fall looks
for less
and games—but can’t bear to
throw away because it is still good
quality. Other people would love
to get an amazing deal on similar
stuff—or have the chance to
win unexpected items like sports
memorabilia or local services.
All of those people are in
luck, because the Holliston High
School Class of 2017 Senior
Auction and Bazaar is coming up
on Columbus Day. On Monday,
October 10, the HHS field house
and more will be filled with merchandise
for sale in a huge indoor
yard sale-style market—and
brand new items will be available
to win through auction or raffle.
The Senior Auction is a longstanding
tradition, a way for the
current graduating class to begin
their senior year working as a
team toward raising money to
defray costs for expenses such
as caps and gowns, the senior
trip, prom, and the class gift to
the school. Preparation for the
event begins as early as the end
of junior year, when students
begin picking up donations and
filling storage spaces with the
merchandise that will be sold or
auctioned.
“Working on the pick-up committee
has been a lot of work, but
I’ve had so much fun doing it,”
says senior Sam Ratcliffe. “Working
that hard with your classmates,
all trying to achieve the
same goal really brings everyone
together in a positive way. As the
class treasurer, I find it very important
that the Auction is successful,
and I’m so thankful for
everybody’s hard work, as well as
the generosity of everyone in the
community.”
That work will continue
through auction day, when all
hands will be on deck to organize
the merchandise and work
with customers. As class secretary
Betsy Hamre says, “The auction
has a job for everyone, whether it
be moving heavy furniture, auctioning
off items, or simply organizing
and cleaning the items for
display!”
Although storage spaces are
already too full for volunteers
to continue doing pick-ups, the
class will be accepting drop-off
donations at the event site the
Saturday prior to the auction.
Volunteers will accept Items at
Holliston High School on Saturday,
October 8, 8:00 AM –
