Rounding up the Rangers

Woohoo! A knee-slapping, foot-stomping good time was had at Ranger Round Up, the annual winter auction event benefiting Brookwood Forest Elementary. Ranger Round Up was held recently under twinkling white lights and burlap at Pine Tree Country Club. Guests dined on a barbecue feast while listening to the tunes of Jimmy and Laine, auctioneer Christie King of C King Benefit Auctions and guest emcee Jeh Jeh Pruitt. 

A special addition for the evening was Ila and Thatcher Worthen winning the first “Best Of Live” auction and selecting the “Date Nights for a Year” package as their big prize. This year, the highly anticipated Principal’s Pick was designated for the library renovation project at Brookwood Forest, expected to be completed this summer. 

Marylon Barkan and Kim Fasking, along with a committee of Ranger PTO volunteers, work year-round to produce a night to celebrate, fellowship and raise money for the school. This event would not be possible without the generosity and support of the many community families and businesses that donated items and services for the auction.
