Thoroughbred Charities of America Stallion Season Auction set for Friday, December 1st
Equestrian News Release
Keeneland Entertainment Center chosen for 17th Annual Event and first location change for popular Charity Season and Art auction.
In an early announcement, Thoroughbred Charities of America, (“TCA”), has decided to consolidate their dual auctions into one large party on Friday, December 1st, 2006 at Keeneland Entertainment Center. CandyLand Farm, owned by TCA founders, Herb and Ellen Moelis, was the location for the past 16 years and attended by nearly 400 people each year with last year’s event grossing close to $2,000,000.
The format will be the same, with the over 300-season telephone auction preceding the event, Monday, November 27 through Wednesday November 29, to allow for the Friday event in Lexington. Hundreds of silent auction items will be featured at the sit-down dinner with a Live Auction by Fasig-Tipton Auctioneers, of approximately 20 select seasons and art to follow.
All proceeds to benefit national Thoroughbred non-profits in the fields of rescue/retraining, backstretch/jockey, research, educational scholarships and therapeutic riding centers. 93 cents of every dollar donated is granted directly to the charities with over $12 million granted out to date. TCA is an affiliate of Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association. For more information go to http://www.ThoroughbredCharities.org or call Liz Harris at 859-312-5531.
