To the editor,

On Friday February 4, 2005, our friends and family held a Fire Auction Benefit at the Winnepesaukee Exposition Center to help all of us who lost our businesses in the Belmont Fire on January 18, 2005. It was a huge success and we would like to thank Phil and Teri Wardner and Lloyd Miles who organized the auction.

We would also like to thank Alan Beetle, Jeff and Wendy Beetle from Patrick's, Carol from Nadias and the Black Cat who all donated food, Pk Zyla who was a fantastic auctioneer, Alan Zappalla who kept the music going, and all who donated their time and efforts to get donations.
