b'FoundationWith your support the MRCA Foundation raised $70,000!! Thank You! To everyone involved! 2018 MRCA Foundation AuctionShowcasing MRCAs Strong Support of our IndustryOneofthemorelivelytraditionsoftheannualMRCAConferenceistheMRCA Foundation Auction Fundraising Event.This years event turned out some very generous outlaws and some happy-to-give good guys as they entered the Gateway to the Wild West.Several attendees really got into the spirit of the theme with their very finest western wear!A special auction feature this year was the MRCA Foundation Jail. Sheriff Sprague was happy to escort all of the accused to lockup for a donation to the Foundation.Judge Gary Auman was loyal to the Foundation in finding all defendants guilty and issuing them an immediate jail sentence.Perpetrators were confined to their cell until an additional donation to the Foundation could be made to post their bail.It was oddly enjoyable to see friends and family locked up for a good cause.In addition to the funds raised with all the jailing and bailing, the silent auction and live auction also generated quite a stir.The live auction got kicked up a notch with the genuine auctioneer chant of Tyler Gillum of Plainville Livestock in Plainville, Kansas.Ty brought out the philanthropist in every cowpoke there.Together, everyone was able to rustle up over $70,000 for the Foundation!It was a down right fantastic sight to see everyone come together once again to show their support of the Roofing Industry. This event is open to all Conference attendees each year.Come out and see what kind of fun you can have at next years auction when youre in Overland Parkforthe2019MRCAConferenceandExpo. www.mrca.orgMidwest Roofer 25see more photos on'
