Vince Peterson’s Christmas display auction on Sunday, Nov. 22 was labeled a success.

“It went real good,” said Peterson. “We had a big crowd. It was real nice. It’s just about all gone.”

Peterson didn’t know an exact total, but figured around $6,000 was raised, half donated to Trinity Lutheran Church and half to the New Richland Area Fund. Auctioneer Tracy Holland donated his services, assisted by Tom Peterson.

A total of 55 bidders were registered for the auction and upwards of 100 attended. At least one area television station was there.

Peterson said many of the items will remain in the area.

“They did a real good job,” said Peterson. “I’d just like to say thank you on behalf of our family.”
