Auction
Live Auction Items
Led by Mark Fodero
For 10 years, we have made incredible experiences, artwork, services and more, available to our SOS audiences. The live auction, again led by Mark Fodero this year, has become a highlight of the evening as we showcase the generous donations from our sponsors and supporters.
All funds raised through the auction at the Runnymede Formal go to support the vitally important work of Easterseals Military & Veterans Services programs to benefit our New Hampshire military heroes.
Below are our fabulous Runnymede Formal Auction Items!
Horse Soldier Bourbon
VALUE: Worth the price of admission
Much of our brotherhood was forged in fire during the first days after the 9/11 attacks. Immediately following this affront on our nation, the USA responded with a daring insertion of small teams of Green Berets into northern Afghanistan. The Northern Alliance successfully overthrew Mazar-i-Sharif, a Taliban stronghold, with the support of these brave men. This region’s inhospitable mountainous terrain made the efforts and enemy engagements on wild Afghan horses a necessity for one Special Operations team (ODA595). Nicknamed the “Horse Soldiers,” all these brave men are honored today by America’s Response Monument overlooking “Ground Zero” in New York City.
Our team has been involved in every conflict since the Vietnam War. We make history and continue to live legendary lives by instilling family values, adventurous spirits, and pride into Horse Soldier Bourbon Whiskey. Our next mission is to serve Horse Soldier Bourbon, our legacy in a bottle.
