On Saturday, July 24, supporters of Art Reach placed silent auctions on 45 adult and children Adirondack chairs, and benches (some with and some without backs). The chairs had been built by local contractors, high school students, and CMU students. Local artists and art students decorated them in many pleasant designs.

By 3 o'clock all chairs had been sold, bringing in a gross of over $4600.
