CRRA Housing Opportunity Foundation’s (HOF) Live Auction
Attend the CRRA/CMLS Installation & Awards Gala on Jan. 14 and help us kick the year off right with a live auction benefiting HOF! Auctioneer Robert Gates will entertain guests as he auctions off several extraordinary packages. Bid on an item by yourself or as a group – and walk away from the evening satisfied with your purchase and your contribution to HOF. All proceeds will go toward building the HOF Community Grants Program, which will seek to address unmet housing needs in Mecklenburg County and the northern region in 2009.
Live Auction Packages
Weekend Package for Two to The Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia




Enjoy a two-night stay at The Greenbrier Inn, as well as one round of golf on the Members’ Only Snead Golf Course for two (taxes, green and cart fees included). Experience fine dining at your choice of The Members’ Only Clubhouse or Summit Lodge, and also receive a private tour of the 6,500+ acre estate and amenities. Package provided by The Greenbrier Sporting Club.
Meet Snuggles, an eight-week old, male Coton de Tuléar puppy.

The Coton de Tuléar has medium-length to long hair (about four to six inches). He has a fluffy, cotton-like coat that is hair rather than fur. Since it is a non-shedding breed with no dander, it is hypoallergenic and has no "doggie smell.” The Coton is a playful, affectionate, intelligent breed. Some people consider it as a completely non-aggressive breed when given the proper love and care it deserves. It loves life and is enthusiastic and lively. Most Cotons love meeting new people and are very curious in new situations. The dogs are very trainable with praise and they are great with other dogs and children. Snuggles is up-to-date on all shots and has papers so he can be registered.
Gourmet Dinner at The Capital Grille

Enjoy a night out in Charlotte with a chef’s gourmet dinner for six at The Capital Grille. Attend the gala to receive all the exciting details of the evening!
