Our annual Silent Auction is the only funding source for grants that supports many neighborhood organizations. The Silent Auction is held during the popular Twilight Tour that kicks off the Home & Garden Tour weekend.

If you or your business would like to support Meridian-Kessler and its surrounding neighborhoods, please contribute to the 2011 Silent Auction! You can promote your business to the more than 500 residents attending the dinner. Download the 2011 PDF Silent Auction Form.

The Silent Auction provides you the opportunity to purchase items graciously donated by local businesses and residents. In 2010-2011, more than 150 items were auctioned off at our event, which gave the Meridian-Kessler Neighborhood Association the opportunity to reward the following organizations with funds that promote enrichment and improved quality of life in M-K.
