Jan. 12 Fundraiser For Aaron Stutzman

The Times has been informed of a planned January fundraiser for Aaron and Missy (Velder) Stutzman, both graduates of Dorchester High School.

According to our sources, the event will be Saturday, Jan. 12, 2008, at the Seward Ag Pavilion located at the Seward County Fairgrounds.

Earlier this autumn, Aaron was diagnosed with stage three cancer and is currently going through chemotherapy as often as five days a week. The fundraiser will help the Stutzmans with medical bills.

On Jan. 12, a noon meal will be served from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. with a free-will offering. Following lunch, an auction will begin at 1:30 p.m.

Items for the auction will include: a family weekend get-a-way package; a meal for a family of four; a Mexican dinner once-a-month for a year for six people; NU basketball tickets; antiques; home furnishings and DecorHorse – a five-year-old paint mare; and a huge selection of services.

According to a handout, this list of auction items is just the beginning and many more items will be announced at a later date.

All proceeds will be given to the Stutzman's to help with medical expenses not covered by their limited insurance.

  4. Bob is right - we should all be in attendance to help however we can.
    You know Stutzmans would be right there to help if someone else was in this situation.

    If you can donate something of value for the auction, please consider doing so.
