Fall Auction fundraiser

Saturday, October 24 at 5:00 PM

Grimes Community Center

410 SE Main St, Grimes (enter through the north door)


Dinner, dessert, bidding wars, and a whole lot of laughing, all to help build our church home. 


Everyone is welcome, so invite your friends, neighbors, or the whole family out to dinner! Walk-ins welcome.

A night of guaranteed fun

Food, fellowship, fun, and fundraising! Every bid helps build our church home.


Schedule: Dinner at 5:00 PM, free will donation. Dessert Dash during dinner. Silent auction all evening. Live auction at 6:30 PM.

Want to do a little extra?

None of these are required. Just showing up is plenty, and walk-ins are always welcome!

Reserve a table

Grab a table for 6 and fill it with friends! Reserved tables are near the front, and dinner is a free will donation. Decorate your table from 3:30 to 5:00 PM, and we will auction off the decorations at the end of the night! Limited tables available.

Free will donations: Venmo @experience-crossroads (please add "Auction table" and your name in the note), check to Crossroads Community Church, or cash.
