In the end, the tractor brought $1,250. Adding the match, the item netted out $3,250 for the American Cancer Society and was purchased by Don Peasley. This is the second year in a row Peasley has purchased the pedal tractor for his granddaughter Baylor Ingram. Again this year, the pink bike returned to the auction. The bike first debuted in 2023 and each year since has been donated back to the auction for the next year. This year, for the fourth time, the bike returned, donated back by Linda Ray who added a bouquet of flowers in the front basket along with pink survivor swag. This year the bike was purchased by Robert Perschell of Hot Frog Designs for $400. On Friday morning, the bike was back in the office at Lincoln Daily News. The Perschell’s are donating the bide to the 2027 auction, so hold on folks…the bike will sell again! All in all, it was a very good night, filled with good food, fun, and lots of opportunities to support the American Cancer Society. Though the auction is held in conjunction with Breast Cancer Awareness month, the money raised helps serve cancer warriors in Logan County regardless of what form of the disease they are fighting. The money raised including the corporate sponsorships and proceeds from all the activities on the night of the auction is donated 100% to the American Cancer Society. Every item sold at the auction is donated by faithful contributors throughout our community. The generosity of the donors and the buyers is always amazing, and this year was no exception. The committee wishes to thank each and every person, organization or business that supports this annual event. Your contribution can and does make a big difference in the future of our
