Auction goes to the dogs, literally
NORWICH – After volunteering to auction himself off for the SPCA, Norm Nichols might have felt a little nervous, but he shouldn’t have. On Saturday night, a date with Norm was auctioned off at The Auction Center in New Berlin.
Norm was sold for $100, and an additional $37 in donations were collected in donation cans throughout the auction house. The woman who won the auction declined the actual date, saying that she worked weekends and would not have time to accompany Nichols to the Turning Stone Casino’s Emerald Room. This resulted in yet another win for the SPCA, as Nichols now plans to donate the cost of the dinner trip to the organization as well.
According to Carol Hedlund, executive director of the Chenango County SPCA, one of the board members attended Saturday’s event. “She was very impressed,” said Hedlund. “It was very generous of both the woman bidder and of Norm.” Hedlund said she believed this was the first time anyone had ever auctioned themselves off for the SPCA. She is pleased with the money and care items that were donated as a result of the auction.
