GILFORD — A family favorite on Gilford Old Home Day is the Gilford Community Church Old Home Days Fair and Silent Auction Friday, Aug. 22 and Saturday, Aug. 23.
The Giant White Elephant/Man Cave sale starts Friday afternoon 4-6:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. Explore the jewelry room, toys and games, and tasty baked goods. Tons of household goods, wall art, and back to college items.
The silent auction opens at 4 p.m. in the Gilford Youth Center. All bids must be in by Saturday at 1 p.m.
The Giant White Elephant sale continues Saturday morning starting at 8 a.m.
The Gilford Rotary Pancake Breakfast to benefit the Cheryl Lynn Walsh Scholarship Fund takes place from 7 a.m. until 10 a.m., wrapping up in time for the Gilford Old Home Day Parade.
After the parade, bring the kids to the youth center for the Magic Fred show at 11:30 a.m. Magic Fred entertains family audiences with comedy magic, a popular favorite throughout New England. The shows are open to the public and are free of charge.
“The event is a lot of fun, and its deeper purpose is to support our local and international philanthropic efforts,” said Pastor Michael Graham. “It’s also a chance to experience our community, which is inclusive and open to all.”
Over 100 items will be featured in the silent auction, which takes place in the Youth Center with dozens of items from local merchants and specialty baskets created and donated by church members.
