Thank you to all who attended the 5th Annual Memories in the Making Art Auction. We raised $80,000 through the generous contributions of over 250 attendees. Guests enjoyed music by the Magnolia Jazz Band, delicious food by Four Seasons Catering and a lively auction lead by emcee Denniss O'Donnell and auctioneer Bob Dutcher. Honored guests Mike and Kathy Nolan and former 49er Wide Receiver Dwight Clark mingled with guests throughout the evening.
The evenings highest bid of $10,500 was for the original watecolor of "The Catch" by Armano Delgado. Winning bidders Jack and Joanne McCall took home the original painting that Delgado created on January 11, 1982 the day after Dwight Clark scored the winning touchdown against the Dallas Cowboys with "The Catch." The artist had kept the original in storage for over 20 years, waiting for the opportunity to auction it for a great cause. Dwight Clark and Armando Delgado were on hand to present the McCalls with the artwork.
