HeART & Soul to Feature Artwork and Spirited Bidding
For more than 10 years, CAMP Rehoboth has had an annual art auction of one type or another to raise money for programs. This year, several accomplished artists are doing intimate works that fit anywhere just for this HeART & Soul project.
Bid anytime from May 4 up to (and at) the June 1 Closing Bid Party that will take place from 4-7 p.m. at the CAMP Rehoboth Community Center.
While some people loved the Bidding Owl tool used in the past couple of years, not enough bidders were proficient with it for us to continue. We are returning to traditional bid sheets.
Art lovers who cannot attend will be able to designate a proxy to bid for them up to a maximum bid on a specific piece of art. Bidders will need to sign a proxy form, available at the office or online at (email proxy forms to CAMP Rehoboth at by May 28).
Artwork may also be purchased outright with a “Buy Now” bid. Details are online and at the gallery.
Visual art fits into the CAMP Rehoboth mission by using art as an opportunity to build bridges, transcend differences, and express what is universal among people.
Artists included are Sondra N. Arkin, Rod Cook, Donna Deely, Sam Dixon, Gary Fisher, Yvonne M. Frankis, Susan Frey, Terry Isner, Jane Knaus, Jeffery Todd Moore, Aina Nergaard-Nammack, Renata Price, Barbara Warden, and Melissa Widerkehr. ▼
Esprit de CROP
CAMP Rehoboth Outreach Program (CROP) headed to Southern Delaware Therapeutic Riding in Milton on Friday, April 12, for a project held in conjunction with Women’s FEST. The team of 11 learned about the good work done by SDTR and quickly knocked off a list of chores to help get the facility ready for its riders. In addition to making a significant contribution, the team had fun as they raked hay, met mini-horses, a pony, goats, and more!
