CASA of Lexington's Bourbon and the Bayou event is scheduled for the evening of Feb. 25, the “Fat Friday” before Fat Tuesday. Fred Seitz, owner of Brookdale Farm, is the event's honorary chair. The event will be held at the Embassy Suites on Newtown Pike in Lexington.
Attendance is not required to bid on silent auction items. Bids close on all items promptly at 9:45 p.m. ET on Friday, Feb. 25.
“Anyone interested in these amazing items donated by the equine industry and artists – or any of our other amazing items – can bid online from any location right up until the auction closes,” said Melynda Jamison, CASA of Lexington Executive Director. “This year, we're also auctioning two-night getaway to Gasparilla Island in Boca Grande, Fla., a football autographed by Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd, a gorgeous pair of horse-head book-ends and much more. The best part is 100% of the proceeds go to help abused and neglected children in central Kentucky.”
