Eufaula Masonic Lodge #1 joins Under One Roof in sponsoring the event.

Many ocal restaurants have agreed to provide a sampling of their signature items, so you have an opportunity to try them. In addition to wonderful food, a silent auction, live auction, and lots of great prizes to win will make this a nice evening to get out with your friends and kick off the holiday season.

“We have so many wonderful auction items donated from the most generous local businesses,” said Kim Woodruff, Executive Director for Under One Roof. “The Eufaula Masonic Lodge #1 has been a great friend and community partner of Under One Roof for many years. They sponsor our Live and Silent Auctions at Local Flavor. They will apply for matching funds, and if awarded, will match the proceeds from our auctions.”

Tickets are available at the door until sold out, from the Under One Roof Center, U1R’s board members, or from the Eufaula Chamber of Commerce.
