Clockwise from top: T&T Concrete put their money to good use by donatiing it to the Hill Country Children’s Advocacy Center, purchasing a number of items at the auction Saturday night. Among the things they purchased was a trip to Ruidoso Downs in New Mexico. Attendees at the Rifles Racks & Deer Tracks spent time looking at auction items. An auctioneer looks for more bids on this $1400 custom-built cake, which was donated back to the HCCAC three different times and was auctioned off each time to raise more money.
