After getting off to a good start on the first evening, the 71st WHOP Rotary Radio Auction continues Tuesday evening.
Eighty-eight items sold Monday night for $6,526, the diner and sweet shop brought in $1,410 and Hour and Goat Club donations to this point have totaled just over $58,000 for an overall total after one night of $66,111 almost $16,000 ahead of last year’s very different virtual auction.
Auction Chair Cody Noffsinger says they’re appreciative to all of the businesses and friends of Rotary who’ve donated items to the auction and they could still use more items.

The 71st WHOP Rotary Radio Auction kicks off Monday night at the War Memorial Building with its normal hours, a crowd in attendance and an open diner.
The theme is “Building the Foundation,” as for the first time a portion of money raised will help establish the Hopkinsville Rotary Club Foundation to benefit local youth. Much of the money will also help local high school graduates attend college through the Rotary Scholars and student loan programs.
Cody Noffsinger is the auction chair and says while you’ll hear or see about the hundreds of items up for auction on the broadcast, the driving force behind the auction is cash donations to the Hour Club and Goat Club.
