$5,000 also raised for the Warren Bailey Community Service Scholarship

LACONIA—Hundreds boarded the M/S Mount Washington at Weirs Beach Friday night, selling out the 2025 Sweepstakes Social and raising $15,000 in cash prizes and $15,000 in matching cash to Pub Mania teams that support the Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction.

The sixth annual event also raised $5,000 for the Warren Bailey Community Service Scholarship, which awards $5,000 in grants each year to Lakes Region graduating seniors to support their college journeys.

The scholarship honors Warren Bailey, the founder of the Children’s Auction who passed away recently.

Coincidentally, the Sweepstakes Social was held only hours after a four-hour celebration of life for Bailey at Gunstock Resort. Many of those who attended the memorial were on board the Mount in the evening, continuing to honor a community hero.

“It was so appropriate that an event raising funds for the Children’s Auction and the scholarship in Warren’s name followed the celebration of his life,” said Event Organizer Jennifer Beetle.  “I think Warren would be very pleased with that.”  

Presenting sponsor Meredith Village Saving Bank and nine other local businesses supported the Sweepstakes Social, and Pub Mania Team Captain Judi Taggart of Tagg Team sold 59 event tickets and was given a shout-out on board for her efforts.

As party goers danced to music by Holycow! Music DJ, Jeff Lines, and enjoyed the late summer evening on the water, names were drawn intermittently for cash prizes. Individual winners received the prize and a matching amount went to the Pub Mania team they selected when purchasing their ticket.

“We had a blast on the Mount under perfect skies last night, and we’re grateful for all the support we received from teams that helped us sell out the event,” Beetle said. “We had lots of fun with a community of friends, and we did it for our region’s kids. That’s why we come out.”

Four $500 prizes went to Steve Wainwright and the Beetle Books team, June Hibbs and Tagg Team, Deb Peverly and Lakes Region Realtors, and Holly Ruggieri and Lakes of the Lake. 

Three $1,000 prizes went to Paul Ardizzoni, James Hutchins and Bill Finethy, with matching gifts for all three supporting Patrick’s Kings Corner. 

A $2,000 prize went to Susan Spooner-Bishop and Lakes Region Realtors; $3,000 to Bill Kaik and Body Covers; and the grand prize of $5,000 went to Wendy Beetle and Patrick’s Kings Corner.

Bailey founded the Children’s Auction as a one-day event in 1981, and over 44 years, it has grown into an organization that fundraises all year long and is supported by over 700 volunteers. The auction has raised over $9.2 million to fund local nonprofits.

Donations to the Warren Bailey Community Service Scholarship are accepted all year long via the Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation. For more information, email scholarship@lrscholarship.org.

LACONIA—Leaders of the Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction are grateful for the support received for the annual Christmas in July boat event on the M/S Mount Washington, an initiative that raised just over $28,000 for the nonprofit this year.

Thanks go to the presenting sponsor, Juggernaut Fitness; Santa Sponsors, Ideal Block, The Xavier Group, Franklin Savings Bank and Amoskeag Beverages; Media Partners, The Laconia Daily Sun and Lakes 101.5 and the Hawk; and the Location Partner, M/S Mount Washington. 

Captain Smitty, celebrating 40 years with the M/S Mount Washington, and Joyce Janitorial Services each donated $1,000 on the boat that evening to help the auction reach its best year ever!

Because Jared Maraio, general manager of the M/S Mount Washington, matched ticket sales and added a generous donation, 300 children from local nonprofits the auction funds will get to take a free ride on the Mount on Aug. 6.

Highlights of the July event were a 50/50 raffle, through which the winner took home $760, a three-hour cruise complete with buffet dinner, an online auction and songs from Powerhouse Theatre Collaborative, as well as a visit from the Powerchords, who serenaded guests as they boarded.

“Who says Christmas magic is reserved for December? This event brought people together, and it raised money so that we can serve more children in need in the Lakes Region. It was a perfect win all around,” said auction Executive Director Jennifer Kelley.

All proceeds from Christmas in July benefit the Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction.

LACONIA — The Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction raised nearly $8,000 through its third An Evening of Broadway performance at the Colonial Theatre Laconia in mid-August. The energy for the family-friendly event was incredible with over 400 people attending. 

“The goals of our Broadway fundraiser are threefold,” said Jennifer Kelley, executive director of the Children’s Auction. “We raise money for the nonprofits that support local children and their families in need. We highlight the extraordinary talent in this community, and we create an event that gives children who might not otherwise have the opportunity a chance to experience the arts.”

Nearly 200 children from local nonprofits attended the show at no cost, thanks to donations from the community. Children and families that attended for free included members from the Boys and Girls Club, Central NH Foster & Adoptive Parent Support Group, Gilford Got Lunch!, Hands Across the Table, Kingswood Youth Center, Lakes Region Mental Health, Pittsfield Youth Workshop, Step Up Parents, Waypoint Family Resource Center, Laconia, and 603 United.

The show offered Broadway musical performances from local community theater and dance groups, including Big Brothers Big Sisters, Broadway North Dance Studio, Franklin Footlight Theatre, Gilford Performing Arts, Interlakes Children’s Theatre, Miss NH, Powerhouse Theatre Collaborative,  NYC Ladies, Stages Dance Academy, The Power Chords, and The Winnipesaukee Playhouse. 

Lynn Dadian from the Goal Tenders group rewrote lyrics from ABBA’s “Money, Money, Money” and performed to encourage people to donate to the auction. 

The event was made possible through the Presenting Sponsor, Franklin Savings Bank. Media partners were The Laconia Daily Sun and Lakes 101.5 FM.

“An Evening of Broadway was such a fun night filled with exceptional talent and a great sense of community,” said Jennifer Prince, marketing and community engagement officer. “It was heartwarming to see so many people come together to support local children and families in need.” Kelley also thanked the show’s production team: directors Matt Demko, Heidi Bourgeois, Jennifer Prince and Paige Thompson; Christy Dunn, who coordinated all the music with Johanna Halperin as backstage manager; and Sean Carroll running audiovisual.

“Everything that we do as an organization is geared toward engaging the community to financially support children and families in need,” Kelley said. “Thank you to all for making this event a success.”

The evening’s emcee was local radio personality Pat Kelly, a loyal supporter of Lakes Region events and organizations, and, in particular, the arts.

GILFORD — Beans and Greens will host a Silent Disco Party in its Notch Biergarten, 245 Intervale Road, on Thursday, Aug. 29 at 7 p.m., with doors open at 5 p.m.

The event costs $25 and is a benefit for the Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction.

A silent disco is a dance party at which attendees listen to music through wireless headphones instead of speakers. Headphones are provided by the party’s sponsor, and a radio transmitter broadcasts the music, which is picked up through the headphones worn by participants.

Silent discos can be similar to club nights or birthday parties, but they allow for different music channels to play at the same time, on three different channels, so people can choose music that suits their taste. For example, a silent disco might have 60s music for grandparents, 80s music for parents and house music for others, all playing simultaneously; headphones light up in different colors, depending on the channel, so groups always know what channels their friends are on.

“It is super fun, and it will help us support children and families and Beans and Greens is a perfect venue for this event,” said Auction Executive Director Jennifer Kelley.

Chris Collias, owner of Beans and Greens, said, “When we bought the farm stand in 2021, we envisioned Beans and Greens as a place where the community could meet, and supporting local causes is a huge part of our mission. We found the silent disco concept in our travels and thought the attraction would be a great addition to the fun things we have going on.”

The Beans and Greens Farm to Foodie Taco Truck, Wood Fired Pizza oven and Notch Provisions menu will be available for dinner/snacks. Beer, wine and cocktails will be sold separately.
