CLEARFIELD – A packed house was on hand Wednesday night to lend their support to the Friends of the Area Agency on Aging Auxiliary of the Clearfield County Area Agency on Aging at the 15th Annual Anne S. Thacik Charity Auction.
John Kordish, executive director of the CCAAA, said that Thacik was an advocate for seniors not only in Clearfield County, but also across the state. According to her biography, she was instrumental in forming the Auxiliary to the AAA. She also started the first Wreaths for Reasons and Seasons, the precursor to the Anne S. Thacik Charity Auction.
The event was held at the Knights of Columbus in Clearfield, and featured a little bit of something for everyone. Auction items included football tickets, autographed albums, and a 47 inch television, to name a few.
Two auctions took place Wednesday evening; a silent auction, and a live auction. Other fundraising games included Charity Bingo, a Lucky Card Game, the Key Club and a 50/50 raffle.Â
Kordish  noted his amazement at the generosity of the citizens in Clearfield County.
“This means so much to what this mission is all about,” added Kordish.
