The following announcement is from Kristin Rubin, ex-president of OSFR. Following her letter are some photos of random objects which will be available on the silent auction. This is only a sample and there are almost 100 items in all. There are original paintings, photos, books, jewelry and many handcrafted items. Many of these are by local artisans and/or related to the Santa Fe River.
