The pulled pork was hot.
The auction action was definitely hot.
And Wareham High School DECA’s 41st annual fundraising auction Sunday on the school’s grounds was a hot success.
The DECA crew switched things up this year, turning what had traditionally been an indoor event into an outdoor tailgating party in deference to COVID safety.
The venerable event transitioned well to the open air, which was a credit to the preparation and hard student work. The organization was evident, with students checking in attendees arriving in their cars, directing them to parking, providing the food, as well as organizing the auction items and the fun.

WAREHAM – The Wareham High School Class of 2021 had its prom venue OK’d back in February 2020.
Then things really changed, noted Principal Scott Palladino.
The venue selected in those pre-COVID days wasn’t going to provide the safety needed under school protocols, which include students remaining 6 feet apart when they remove masks to eat lunch.
So the students and their faculty advisors had to find a venue that could provide the kind of space needed to assure that the students would remain 6 feet apart when they were at the table to eat.
