The TFI Family Services auction Wednesday night brought in around $18,000.

About 80 people showed up for the auction. The most popular item was 10 yards of concrete from Builder’s Choice, which brought in $850. An oil painting called First Snow brought in $470. A KVOE advertising package went for $300 and a golf package went for $250. There were about 70 items in the live auction and around 30 to 35 items in the silent auction.

“It went great,” said Shelley Jenkins, of TFI Family Services. “It was really fun.”
