An event which started a quarter of a century ago continues to be one of the most well attended of community events on the Colorado River. The event is the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Colorado River 29th Annual Bids for Kids Charity Auction. Over 600 attendees support this event because it not only benefits hundreds of area school children through the clubs’ many development programs, but because it is a fun night with numerous things to be bid on and won. The event consists of a live auction offered in a traditional way and a silent auction that is held online during the event. Items up for bids in the past have included sports memorabilia, home goods, certificates for services, concert tickets, resort stays, toys, gift baskets and artwork. In addition to the auction, there is a dinner offered for attendees. Held at the beautiful Aquarius Casino in Laughlin, NV, the event raises funds to support the mission of "enabling all young people, especially those who need us most, to realize their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens." With three locations in Bullhead City, AZ, Fort Mohave, AZ and Laughlin, NV, we provide after-school programs and a summer day camp for more than 1,600 students annually.
